The Facebook song
November 11th, 2007 | This is a song I wrote with a couple of friends while in a comedy band called Dr. Thunder and the Generic Sodas called “Facebook (I Poke and I Poke)”. It was written and recorded in the spring of 2006. Enjoy (Click below to play).
Lyrics ↴
My name is Andrew and I just transferred here
I don’t know nobody but I’ll conquer my fears
See, the ladies they frustrate me; I break out in a sweat
But the answer to my problem lies on the Internet
There’s this girl in my class, she sits ahead of me
Blonde hair and blue eyes, 5′2″ or 5″3″
I try to catch her attention but she won’t even look
At least she’ll be my friend on the Facebook
Facebook, Facebook
I know all about you, I read it today
And now our friendship’s just a click away
On the Facebook
We like the same movies, like Armageddon
I looked at all your groups and I joined the same ones
I’m not from Minnesota but I know this is true
When we sit down in a circle, it’s “Duck, Duck, GOOSE, bitches”
(Whoa bitches)
I’ll take friendship, I’ll take dating, or whatever I can get
I’ll take random play or maybe a relationship
I know that you’re a liberal, that’s alright with me
There’s a party in my room, why don’t you R.S.V.P
Facebook, Facebook
I know all about you, I read it today
And now our marriage is just a click away
On the Facebook
I poke and I poke and I poke
and I get nothing in return
I poke her to the left and I poke her to the right
I poke her in the middle and I poker her all night
Well I would do anything, I’d walk the plank
I poke and I poke, but my wall is still blank
On the Facebook
I poke and I poke and I poke
and I get nothing in return

I won’t lie, I think i have at least 3 “Dr. Thunder and the Generic Sodas” songs.
And i don’t really remember how i got them.
But that definitely made me laugh and forget about the mountain of Music Lit. i still have to climb.
Made me laugh out loud.
