Ode To Facebook

I didn't go to sleep at all last night, 

That's why today I have bags under my eyes,

But you know it's all right, it's all right. 

Because I 

Was discovering myself by the light

Of the computer screen that shone so bright,

I was taking that quiz

"Which Beatles Song Describes Your Life?"

It's on Facebook 

With all of my twenty million friends

Your daily connections never have to end

Even though you don't know half of them

And wouldn't care if you never saw them again,

Hey hey, let's be Facebook friends. 

We all know getting together is so last year,

If you see my face you might see my fear

But you know it's all right, it's all right. 

So you 

Check your inbox for the fortieth time

When it's empty (again!) you sigh

You update your status

To some mysterious quip or music line. 

We're on Facebook

With all of my fifty zillion friends

You're daily connections never have to end

Even though you don't know three-fourths of them

And don't care if you never saw them again

Hey hey, let's be Facebook friends. 

Oh,

I think I'll check out everyone's photos,

Where does the time go?

I can't believe I've been on here for

Three hours straight, it's getting so late. 

Oh,

I barely know who you are,

I've seen your profile eight times so far

Your "About Me" sections says

That your seventeen, 

Prom queen,

And I shouldn't assume by your car

That you are a snob. 

So get on Facebook!

With all your hundred trillion friends,

Search for the perfect bumper sticker

Man, the fun never ends!

It doesn't matter that your Friend Wheel 

Can't display everyone, 

Or that your Super Wall is covered with

All sorts of forward junk,

And even though you don't remember

Who you've accepted or denied,

Or just don't care about them 'cause

You couldn't remember if you tried,

HEY HEY, let's be Facebook friends.
