I Google You Lyrics
I Google you
Late at night when I don't know what to do
I find photos you've forgotten you were in
Put up by your friends
I do, I Google you
When the day is done and everything is through
I read your journal that you kept that month in France
I've watched you dance
And I'm pleased your name is practically unique
It's only you and a would-be PhD from Chesapeake
Who writes papers on the structure of the sun
I've read each one
I know that I should let you fade
But there's that box and there's your name
Somehow it never makes the pain grow less or fade or disappear
I think that I should save my soul and I should crawl back in my hole
But it's too easy just to fold and type your name again, I fear
I Google you
When I'm all alone and don't know what to do
And each shred of information that I gather
Says you've found somebody new
And it really shouldn’t matter
Ought to blow up my computer
But instead...
I Google you
Late at night when I don't know what to do
I find photos you've forgotten you were in
Put up by your friends
When the day is done and everything is through
I read your journal that you kept that month in France
I've watched you dance
It's only you and a would-be PhD from Chesapeake
Who writes papers on the structure of the sun
I've read each one
But there's that box and there's your name
Somehow it never makes the pain grow less or fade or disappear
I think that I should save my soul and I should crawl back in my hole
But it's too easy just to fold and type your name again, I fear
When I'm all alone and don't know what to do
And each shred of information that I gather
Says you've found somebody new
And it really shouldn’t matter
Ought to blow up my computer
But instead...
I Google you

Brilliant lyrics!!!
Amanda says on the version I have that "That song SHOULD be funnier, but it's actually just so true it's SAD". Cracks me up every time :P
Lovelovelove it!
As for the meaning its pretty self explanitory - obsessivly stalking a friend late at night via the internet.
haha, good to know someone else does this. xD
I think the song was written by Neil Gaiman.
And Amanda is right, hello_ily. It really should be a funny song, but it's just... right on the nail. The internet has made stalking your ex's mega-easy. XD
It was written by him. I love the lyrics, so funny and so true...the internet makes things as difficult as it makes them easy these days.
I die laughing every time I hear this song XD
I love hearing her in like, every version I find when she goes "I... GOOGLE YOU" so forcefully. XD
