I Grew Up On Youtube

It's a feeding frenzy
But there are no sharks, Bess 
It's a moonlight sonata 
In total darkness 

It's a parallel region 
Brought to breach by a browser
It's a swollen moment 
With your miniature schnauzer 

I grew up on YouTube 
You can watch it unfold
The stages of childhood 
Caught in a scroll 

When you're doin your homework,
Don't believe the hype
Leave all the planning
To the God in the Skype 

There's no such disorder 
As the kind in your soul
I wished I had met you
Further up in the scroll

But I grew up on YouTube 
It charted my path
I've had more engagements 
Than the Wife of Bath
