    ‘Welcome to the Internet’ by Bo Burnham


    boburnham

    Bo Burnham’s famous Inside Special is a deep dive into the bewildering, lonely and completely isolated experience of quarantine, but the music powerhouse’s darkest and funniest moment comes. with the chaotic internet ‘Welcome to’. Racing between weird, fun and breakneck, Burnham’s carnival delivery offers an eerie tour of everything on the internet, from activism to Harry Potter porn, racism, murder and everything to do with it. Sure it’s uncomfortable laughter, but hey, it’s the horror of having ‘everything and everything all the time’… except for everyone else.

    Lyrics

    Welcome to the internet! Have a look around
    Anything that brain of yours can think of can be found
    We’ve got mountains of content—some better, some worse
    If none of it’s of interest to you, you’d be the first

    [Verse 2]
    Welcome to the internet! Come and take a seat
    Would you like to see the news or any famous women’s feet?
    There’s no need to panic; this isn’t a test, haha
    Just nod or shake your head, and we’ll do the rest

    [Verse 3]
    Welcome to the internet! What would you prefer?

    Would you like to fight for civil rights or tweet a racial slur?
    Be happy! Be horny! Be bursting with rage!
    We’ve got a million different ways to engage

    [Verse 4]
    Welcome to the internet! Put your cares aside
    Here’s a tip for straining pasta; here’s a nine-year-old who died
    We’ve got movies and doctors and fantasy sports
    And a bunch of colored-pencil drawings of all the different characters in Harry Potter fucking each other

    [Verse 5]
    Welcome to the internet! Hold on to your socks
    Cause a random guy just kindly sent you photos of his cock
    They are grainy and off-putting; he just sent you more

    Don’t act surprised—you know you like it, you whore

    [Verse 6]
    See a man beheaded, get offended, see a shrink
    Show us pictures of your children, tell us every thought you think
    Start a rumor, buy a broomer, send a death threat to a boomer
    Or DM a girl and groom her; do a zoomer find a tumor in your—
    Here’s a healthy breakfast option, you should kill your mom
    Here’s why women never fuck you; here’s how you can build a bomb
    Which Power Ranger are you? Take this quirky quiz
    Obama sent the immigrants to vaccinate your kids

    [Chorus]

    Could I interest you in everything all of the time?

    A little bit of everything all of the time
    Apathy’s a tragedy, and boredom is a crime
    Anything and everything all of the time
    Could I interest you in everything all of the time?
    A little bit of everything all of the time
    Apathy’s a tragedy, and boredom is a crime
    Anything and everything all of the time

    [Spoken Interlude]

    You know, it wasn’t always like this

    [Bridge]

    Not very long ago, just before your time
    Right before the towers fell, circa ’99

    This was catalogs, travel blogs, a chatroom or two
    We set our sights and spent our nights waiting for you!
    You, insatiable you
    Mommy let you use her iPad; you were barely two
    And it did all the things we designed it to do
    Now, look at you! Oh, look at you!
    You, you! Unstoppable, watchable
    Your time is now, your inside’s out, honey, how you grew
    And if we stick together, who knows what we’ll do?
    It was always the plan to put the world in your hand

    [Chorus]

    Could I interest you in everything all of the time?
    A bit of everything all of the time
    Apathy’s a tragedy, and boredom is a crime
    Anything and everything all of the time
    Could I interest you in everything all of the time?
    A little bit of everything all of the time
    Apathy’s a tragedy, and boredom is a crime
    Anything and everything and anything and everything
    And anything and everything and
    All of the time
