Lyrics:
I have a big load of things to say
About how we humans behave today
So here comes a simple melody
About how I wish things worked differently.
Uh, Honey, put your phone down, we need to talk
Now, how would you feel about an old-fashioned walk?
No, don't take a selfie, just you and me, side by side,
hand in hand, reconnect, you have to understand that
I think the use of selfie-sticks is rather sad
Why don't we ask a stranger? Is that, oh, so bad?
I'm so sick of Snapchat, please close WhatsApp just one night
and hold me tight and leave all the iPhones out of sight
Just you and me under the stars
leaving Pokémons and Angry Birds and Mario Kart
No Instagram, Twitter and them
Honey, we don't need that
Don't make me repeat that
Moonglow and romance, Honey, look, we lost our way
No, don't bring you phone up, let's try something new today
Look, there is an old man, I bet he can guide us home
Without a phone, using words alone
