On social media - Pet Shop Boys

When you care about the issues of the day

Check your facts on Wikipedia

You can get into an argument right away

If you’re on social media

The world is changing everywhere

With a speed that couldn’t be speedier

But you feel so ahead of the curve

When you’re on social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

You’re part of the conversation

You’re there in every debate

From football to religion to contemporary art

You’re ready to pontificate

While democracy is losing its way

And greed is getting greedier

Console yourself with a selfie or two

And post them on social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

My likes are in the thousands

My tweets are being retweeted

My family pics or holiday snaps

With total love are greeted

It’s so nice when people like you

You’re feeling hashtag blessed

You’re part of the conversation

It’s like you’ve passed the test

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

And sometimes you can fuel the debate

By biting the hand that feeds ya

Expressing pure anonymous hate

When you’re on social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on

Social media

When you’re on
