Raised By The World Wide Web

(In fact, one thing you should definitely remember is that this fantasy world is in your own head. In reality, you're only typing words on a computer screen. Just keep telling yourself that.)

I was raised by a place

I've been on since I was eight

Or maybe nine, the internet

Sat online, on the world wide web

Everything I've ever seen

Ever learnt, it's from a screen

And who I am today

Was influenced by the way

I was raised on the World Wide Web

Raised by the Internet

Raised by the World Wide Web

Raised by the World Wide Web

(Raised by the World Wide Web)

(Raised by the World Wide Web)

Don't have any real life friends

Mind melted by the internet

World Wide Web

I was raised online

I was raised online

Maybe that is why

I came out behind

All the other kids

All cause I had unrestricted

Access to the internet

Knowledge at my fingertips

And everything that any kid

Really shouldn't be seeing when

He's browsing at the age of ten

Terrorist beheadings

And anything with death in it

Propaganda, fucking goatse

I came out so fucking lonely

Raised by the World Wide Web

Raised by the World Wide Web

(Raised by the World Wide Web)

(Raised by the World Wide Web)

I'm anxious with every breath

Cause I was raised by the world wide web

World Wide Web

(It's always been this dream that, a lot of us have had, I think. What if every computer could talk to every other computer? What if every computer, irrespective of who made it, which vendor built it, was able to transfer data instantly to any other computer in the world? The internet is the realisation of a society with that vision)
