We’d stay up all night ‘til morning Surfing online, browsing the pages We’d strike gold if we dug deeper Maybe a file, maybe a lyric And the loading times were long But we had time… Do you remember the websites So wild and free, abundantly And the forums Where we would hang with Star Wars fans And we would chat on ICQ And on the walls on MySpace too The list goes on… Do you remember the websites The algorithms think they know us “Check out this band” “Order this smartwatch” Everyone’s a brand, a product Fishing for likes, fishing for follows And we’re stuck in infinite scroll It eats our time… Do you remember the websites So wild and free, abundantly And the forums Where we would hang with Fallout fans And we would chat on ICQ And on the walls on MySpace too The list goes on… Do you remember the websites Yeah, we would listen to the dial-up modem’s hissing in the night We’d disagree sometimes But never ever troll Data traffic sees a tenfold rise As tinfoil hats are spreading lies Do you remember the websites All cookie-free, abundantly And the forums Where we would hang and discuss Pearl Jam Oh, the websites Where have they gone, the apps have won It’s a sandbox We post our memes and make enemies And everyone’s an expert now And everyone’s a victim now The list goes on… The apps have won Now there’s only one Do you remember the websites
