It's all over, I bought a smartphone
_____
And pretend I've got a flashy life
_____
'Cause that's what goes with a smartphone
_____
But my life's never been this fake
_____
A smartphone, they say, is a handy thing
_____
But I feel like a loser
_____
Keep tossing selfies onto my Facebook
_____
And I post videos of animals
_____
'Cause without followers your life limps
_____
I photograph what we're gonna eat
_____
And then a photo of the drink
_____
And then even more pictures of food
_____
It's all over, I bought a smartphone
_____
And pretend I've got a flashy life
_____
'Cause that's what goes with a smartphone
_____
But my life's never been this fake
_____
I Snapchat that life is swinging
_____
And other nonsense that's never urgent
_____
I Instagram that I'm happy
_____
That I only know cool people
_____
But know that that's an
_____
Absolute big fat lie
_____
That I miss the phones of the past
_____
Phones used to be heavy equipment
They hung fixed, pure and simple
_____
With thick cords on the wall
_____
It's all over, I bought a smartphone
_____
And pretend I've got a flashy life
_____
'Cause that's what goes with a smartphone
_____
But my life's never been this fake
_____
I also know by now what Tinder is
_____
Your age really isn't an obstacle there
_____
On Tinder people lie and distort
_____
Hoping you won't get swiped away
_____
So you suddenly end up Skyping
_____
With somebody you totally don't know
_____
At first I didn't notice she was a sl*t
_____
She asked me if I was Bart Kaëll
_____
Then it soon turned out she really was
_____
She asked me if I was Bart Kaëll
_____
It's all over, I bought a smartphone
_____
And pretend I've got a flashy life
_____
'Cause that's what goes with a smartphone
_____
'Cause happiness is just an app
