Email Junkie
When I get up at six I gotta get my fix
start the day with a couple of clicks
Forget the shower, forget the shave
forget the news in the USA Today
When I hear the hard drive hummin’
I know the buzz is comin’
I get a rush when I see
twenty one messages waiting for me
Driving on my way to work
Somebody honks and calls me a jerk
I just laugh, it’s okay
I’m reading jokes on my PDA, yeah yeah
I’m an email junkie give me what I need
Send me a message so I can feed
When I get to my cube I gotta fire it on
booting up takes too damn long
Like Pavlov’s dog every time
I start to drool when I hear that chime
I don’t take lunch or coffee breaks
when the server’s down, I get the shakes
I don’t drink and I don’t smoke crack
so spank this monkey on my back
I’m skipping showers, and missing meals
I forgot to pay my bills
They all say I need a twelve-step group
But I could quit if I really wanted to
I’m an email junkie give me what I need...
I wanted her to whisper in my ear
Three little words I long to hear
She told me to go straight to hell
But all I wanted was, ‘you’ve got mail’
I’m an email junkie give me what I need...
