Lyrics

Millennial Man

All this beepin' and buzzin'
doin ten things at once
They think he's a genius
but he's really just nuts.
He's always online
He's always connected
He'll back up his back ups
He won't get infected

2
He's got his own blog
that's read near and far
He uploads and downloads
while driving his car
His girlfriend ain't real
just a digital wench
She thinks he's a doctor.
He'll text her in french.

Chorus
But he's never read a book
or written with a pen.
He never leaves the house
to meet up with a friend
He'd like to learn to paint
Or play the violin
Get right with his God
but a call is coming in

3
He once had a job
But he always ran late
Nobody liked him
He couldn't relate
He is only at home
In his digital world
With his digital friends
And his digital girl

Chorus

4
He sits in the dark
By the glow of his screen
He sleeps in his clothes
He lives on caffeine
Nobody knows him
Alone in the night
A post modern hermit
On a virtual flight

Chorus

Cool lyric, sweet guitar licks, addictive hook. I really like this tune. Bravo.
