lyrics

My day was pretty sub-par
And I don't even know who you are
Take a look at this thing I've done
I can talk about myself on my phone

Picture another day, I'll take it another way
Angle it so I look cool on my phone
Friends with somebody new on this cyber avenue
Who's got time to be offline

On my phone I can be whoever I please
On my phone my face is where the stranger can see

They're so pretty, they're so cute, they do some much stuff to boot
I feel kind of insecure, take my portrait that's the cure
Gotta sleep, but feel alone, so I look at my phone
They've got more replies than I, whats the deal?

Makes me feel pretty gross, it's a self-love overdose
Who thought this would be ideal, what's the deal?
This puts me in the mood for some short-term gratitude
"Look at all of my cool stuff, I'm great"

What's the deal I've been spending way too much time
Off my phone, I gotta be in touch with the stranger

I've got to reaffirm (4x)

What's the deal I've been spending way too much time
Off my phone, I gotta be in touch with the stranger
On my phone my face is where the stranger can see
On my phone I can be whoever I please
