Lyrics


She was just seventeen,
When she got sucked into the machine,
And caught the virus in her circuitry.
She flew up to the moon,
And never left her room,
Flooded in by possibilities.

She plugged right in,
She's all turned on,
And she's so tuned out.

Her bike began to rust,
And all her records gathered dust,
And her poor dog barely saw the light of day.
She continued to roam,
Found a way to work at home,
And found a place where she could waste away.

She plugged right in,
She's all turned on,
And she's so tuned out,
She's all logged on,
She's so hooked up,
And that's all that she's about.

While the time-keeper's lurching,
She keeps searching-
Says we need more virgins in this land.
The answer to our violence,
In her silence,
Ms. Monitor-Eyes is on the cutting edge
of science,
there's no defiance,
As she slowly disappears.

When she turned 41,
She found that she was not alone,
It happened one night on the internet,
When she looked into the screen,
Found the man of her dreams,
Now she spends her life with a guy she's never met.

She plugged right in,
She's all turned on,
And she's so tuned out,
She's all logged on,
She's so hooked up,
And that's all that she's about.
