Along The Lines

(album: Video Game Songs, Vol. 5 - 2018)

Hey, there boys and girls
I bet you never heard about
This website we called YouTube
It was this place where anyone
Could upload any video
From cat attacks to Pew News
The content wasn't always good
Not produced like Hollywood
And certainly wasn't always smart
Memes, reactions, funny trolls
Sometimes cringy, but gosh darn it
It was ours

Then somewhere along the lines
That spirit was cast aside
The "You" in YouTube
Turned to a Bollywood sign
Because we all didn't subscribe
To PewDiePie

Big budget shows
Conans, show mans, daily shows
And Jimmy Kimmels
First, the takeover was slow
Lost the home page long ago, that stung a little
But then a bigger threat on the horizon
Arrived and made us weary
That's when they fed the "You" in YouTube for some cash
To a giant called T-Series

Yeah, somewhere along the lines
That spirit was cast aside
The "You" in YouTube turned to a Bollywood sign
Because we all didn't subscribe to PewDiePie

We could have fought
We could have tried
We should have subscribed to PewDiePie

But somewhere along the lines
That spirit was cast aside, yeah
The "You" in YouTube turned to a Bollywood sign
Because we all didn't subscribe to PewDiePie

Subscribe to PewDiePie
Subscribe to PewDiePie
Because we all didn't subscribe to PewDiePie
