Reality's Virtually Fine

Roaming the internet space Where time and place is erased I see the information In scary landslides it comes Those E-mails weigh a ton When you got to answer each one.

Just like a junkie you wait For your I-Phone to activate, for a text And tweet to arrive To remind you, you are alive You’re plugged in and you’re awed As if you’re plugged into God.

CHORUS Give me a café somewhere With human beings gathered there With eyes that look into mine And voices I recognize Give me a world I can feel Flesh and blood that is real Reality’s virtually fine I’m going off line

So Many sad souls I find Looking for true love on line Where anybody can be What they think you’d like to see Be careful how much you post Or join the cyberspace ghosts

Give me a book I can read A radiant sunrise to see A question that puzzles me So I can think Google free

We’re on earth a short time I want to savor its wine

CHORUS Give me a café somewhere With human beings gathered there With eyes that look into mine And voices I recognize Give me a world I can feel Flesh and blood that is real Reality’s virtually fine I’m going off line
