Facebook makes promises kids cant deliver
Their souls overwhelmed by the networking river
Make-up and make-outs are shared with a selfie
Diva's on You-tube get fabulously wealthy
Feeding on children that just don't know better
Hoping to be the new fashion trendsetter
The kids are all fucked up before they're eleven
Presents discarded no sooner than given
All pleading for iphones and ipads and make-up
Pouting and posing before the next break up,
A million likes for those schoolgirl poses
Pushing their top lip right up to their noses
Now bullying sits in the heart of the home,
There is no escape for your kids from a phone
What happened to kids being kids just a while?
Ask Instagram Snap-Chat and that bloody mobile.
Our lives are now lived in a bowl like goldfishes
Dictated by Apps that betray all our wishes
By promising so much, but handing us nowt
And kids with illusions they are living without
So now we have bullying, suicides then follow,
Doesn't it make so called progress seem hollow?
