Time
It passes all the time
It goes in ticks-and-tocks
But here's is the Computer Whiz whose head won't fit inside a
Box
You're staring at a box
You're living in a box
You're watching all the clocks tick on and on and on and on
Instead
Of living in your head
You'll never go to bed
You'll engineer the future in a way that's gonna suit ya
Now
So you better show them how
Looks like a piece of cake
Guess you better read a book you look like you will make it
Sometimes this life does not compute
Sometimes you don't feel like the cool dude
But have no fear you're a Computer Whiz
This world is not read-only
By yourself you're never feeling lonely
This world was made for the Computer Whiz
Home
At 2 in the morning
This town is so boring
Suburbia it seems so far by hybrid car to the big
Smoke
Rising from the flux
Smelling hot and sweet
The coffee cups are stacking up, you're cracking up, now get some
Sleep
But even in your dreams
The vivid colour schemes
White magenta and cyan, orange and black, and black and
Green
And you get more caffiene
You read a magazine
Now you're nearly waking up you're taking up the challenge
These picket fences are a barcode
You read it all in ones and zeroes
Number one, not zero: the Computer Whiz
Take apart the world, see how it works
The cops and the jocks and all the jerks
They all bow down to the Computer Whiz
So
Access randomly
Extended Memory
They are all a bunch of dicks their dirty tricks won't get you
Down
But in some other town
There are kindred souls
But the problem is suburbia is just a big black
Hole
And out of your control
And it's eating at your soul
And you know it freaks you out so better get the heck
Out
Now computer is ready (Yes)
Computer Whiz ready (Uh-huh)
As your fingers twitch you flick the switch then you realise
Turbo button is engaged for the new age
The future's bright, everything is beige
Put on your shades you computer whiz
Living life like it's in fullscreen
It's time to put away the sunscreen
You're not just weird; you're a Computer Whiz
We're never going back to high school
We're never coming back to this town
Everything is cool
Used your head
You left them all for dead
And you ended as the Computer Whiz instead
Bright light shining on your bedroom wall
It's the portal to tomorrow and you got it all
You're a human being / a machine / a Computer Whiz
