Lyrics
(Chorus) Sometimes a groove is deceptive, sounds good, but… You come to find it’s just a rut. Sometimes you wish you could cool it and just unwind, but When you do you’re far behind Sammy got stuck in VCR But it’s a DVD world so he can’t go far. Trying to get rep’d he was showing some tape But he wrecked his reel when the machine went ape. (chorus) Shaggy got saddled with a wife and kid, But his eye wanders more than it ever did. She got smart –she got a GPS She caught him in flagrante with his mistress (chorus) Kathy’s boss don’t understand email. She’s got to print ‘em all out so she can read ‘em “snail”. Sometimes he wonders when he ponders back Why he never really got the big contract. (chorus) A doctor was cutting on Danny’s back ‘Cause he was blown up in an RPG attack. The doctor misread the man’s X-ray, And that doctor took the wrong vertebrae. (chorus) Oh, and it all just falls to pieces Oh, and it won’t make sense You try to put it all together But the pieces are all over And the manual’s in Korean, And your head is pounding, pounding And you feel if you don’t get a break You simply will go out of your mind. Daddy’s Little Girl always chatting online She met a brand new boy she thought was really fine. When she went to meet him, he wasn’t who he said She was vulnerable, and now she’s- (yeah, I said it) (chorus) The melody has left the streets There’s just a buncha’ cussing’ shouted to computer beats. How’s a poor songwriter gonna stand a chance Against a buncha’ thugs in sagging pants? (chorus) That’s all the verses I’ve got to sing, But if you take nothing else, take this one thing: You better get smart with technology, Or the cold, cruel world’s gonna kick you free (chorus)
