Get Off The Phone

	  		"Get Off The Phone" 


E 
Here we have a man 

Who's chosen to Instagram 
    B 
His apple pie, a la mode 
         E 
While he fumbles through the filters 
                               B 
His ice cream has gotten "a la hot" 

And the pie "a la cold." 

   E 
As you can see 
                                B 
This street performer's drawn a crowd 

To watch him do his thing 
                      E 
But instead of just enjoying the show 

it seems that everyone's decided 
   B 
To make a documentary 

E 
Notice this unreasonably attractive couple 
  B 
Enjoying a reasonably priced Italian dinner together 
E 
Social networking instead of working 
   B 
On getting to know each other better 

    E 
How does that filtered picture taste 
      B 
Since your dessert has gone to waste? 

     E 
When do you think you ever will 
      B 
Wanna watch this portrait juggling film? 

    E 
You know you want to touch each other 
B                 D 
Doesn't that feel good? 

(He's my brother...) 

            B 
Get off the phone now! 
           F# 
It's gonna be okay 
A                  E 
There's no need to be afraid 
B 
It doesn't love you 
    F# 
Its gonna die one day 
    A 
The government is probably 
       E 
Spying on you with it anyway 

E 
Here we have a stereotypical teen 
B 
Forced to endure "Family Game Night." 
     E 
He's stereotypically texting 

And missing his mom 
B 
Demonstrate a carousel ride 

E 
Little Ethan here 
                                       B 
Is celebrating being the center of the universe 

For one year 
                          E 
But "The World's Greatest Dad" 

Is more worried about 'Facebooking' it 
     B 
Than actually being here 

E 
Let's listen in and see if we can get some context 
 B 
"Please hurry! We're at 382 Pine." 
E 
He has the nerve to make a phone call 
          B 
At such a pivotal moment in his friend's life 

    E 
How could you be so disengaged? 
      B 
While precious memories are being made? 

E 
Do you really think your friends need 
        B 
Another baby picture in their feed? 

      E 
Don't be such a self-centered guy 
B                    D 
Now isn't that better? 

(I think he just died) 

            B 
Get off the phone now! 
           F# 
It's gonna be okay. 
A                  E 
There's no need to be afraid 
B          
It doesn't love you 
     F# 
It's gonna die one day 
     A                       E 
It's crawling with e-coli bacteria anyway 
      
            B                     F# 
Get off the phone now! It's gonna be okay
