Amber
Paul Minshall Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't know why, I can't sleep
3 a.m. 43 degrees (folders)
TV's on watching Tech TV
Another Blue Screen of Death

I got your e-mail address
From the hyper-link on your MySpace
Asked you for a Gmail invite
And you replied the next day

How are you and how's it goin'
Everybody says hello
Call For Help yeh we miss you
You're so popular you know

Everybody wants to be with Amber
Everybody wants to be like her
Everybody's surfing in Toronto
Everybody wants to click on her

Making toast for breakfast
10 a.m. 43 degrees (north latitude)
Diggin' on my computer
Another Critical Update

How are you and how's it goin'
Everybody says hello
Net@Night yeh we love you
You're so Web 2.0

Everybody wants to be with Amber
Everybody wants to be like her




Everybody's surfing in Toronto
Everybody wants to click on her
