De-Phazz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Guided by the senses
With a licence to provide
Bits of low-life to the senseless
(You) can be Jakyll and you can be Hyde.
Enjoy the secret service
(Eehhh,) I hope you can tell by the intention
Who's the spider in the net?
Who's the spider in the net?
Well you've got to meet me online.
(I've been) disconnected for a long time.
Well you got to meet me online.
(I wanna) download you for a lifetime.
I wanna download you for a lifetime.
I wanna download you... download you for a lifetime.
Today they won't use nails.
Jesus would not be crucified.
He would be choked by mails.
Well you've got to meet me online.
(I've been) disconnected for a long time. (disconnected for a long time)
Well you got to meet me online. (online)
(I wanna) download you for a lifetime. (download you for a lifetime)
Well you've got to meet me online.
(I've been) disconnected for a long time.
Well you got to meet me online.
(I wanna) download you for a lifetime.
Well you've got to meet me online. (yeah)
(I've been) disconnected for a long time. (disconnected for a long time)
Well you got to meet me online.
(I wanna) download you for a lifetime. (I love to touch you offline)
The lyrics of De-Phazz's song Online comment on the modern phenomenon of internet relationships, where individuals can hide behind the anonymity of their online persona and engage in behaviors that they may not otherwise engage in. The first verse describes this sense of liberation - people are guided by their senses and have a license to provide bits of low-life to the senseless, which implies that online relationships may involve more provocative or risqué behavior. The line "You can be Jakyll and you can be Hyde" suggests that people may adopt different personas online - switching between different facets of their personality to present a different image to others. The chorus of the song has the plea to meet the person online as they have been disconnected for a long time, and the singer wants to download them for a lifetime.
The second verse takes a more dystopian turn, as the lyrics suggest that the ease and speed of communication online could facilitate gruesome acts that would not have been possible in the past. The line "Today they won't use nails. Jesus would not be crucified. He would be choked by mails" highlights the fact that in today's world, it is not physical pain that poses a threat but the danger that lies in the digital world. The song ends with the same chorus but with an added line that expresses the desire to meet offline and touch the person in real life.
