Chorus:
I scan my computer looking 4 a site
Somebody 2 talk 2, funny and bright
I scan my computer looking 4 a site
Make believe it's a better world, a better life

Nothing on tv i ain't seen before
Another murder on the news, i can't take no more
Evil incorporated, blowing up bombs and thangs
I have a child, huh, i have a lot 2 explain
I could write a letter, but who would i send it 2?
It was sunday night, instead of doing what i usually do i..

Chorus

I called an old friend of mine just the other day
No congratulations, no respect paid
All she did was wonder if the rumors were true
I said - "no, i ain't dead yet, but uh.. what about u?"
I can count my friends with a peace sign: 1, 2
It was sunday night, instead of doing what i usually do i..

I scan my computer looking 4 a site
Somebody 2 talk 2, funny and bright (oh)
I scan my computer looking 4 a site
Make believe it's a better world, a better life (a better life)

I got no mail, my computer

I told them i don't wanna see a doctor unless he's lonely 2
Every sunday night, instead of doing what i usually do i..

I scan my computer looking 4 a site
Somebody 2 talk 2, funny and bright
I scan my computer looking 4 a site
Make believe it's a better world (make believe it's a better world)
A better life {x52}

"goodbye" {aol sample}
