A lullaby for geeks (well, mostly for myself).

Lyrics

Darkness is here and the streetlamps are lit.
But you're still awake reading comments on the 'net.
You're not in bed yet.
So someone was wrong on the internet today.
They can wait till tomorrow to hear what you've got to say.
Step away from the screen,
Away from the screen and take a break. (Take a break)

Your face is filled with a soft flourescent glow.
You smile as you watch one more funny video.
Kittens in the snow.
Now give your brain a rest and step back.
The people around you have all hit the sack.
Step away from the screen,
Away from the screen and relax. (And relax)

A million pixels reflect in your eyes.
You say you're not tired, well it's hardly a surprise.
So mesmerized.
But bookmark the sites you wanna keep.
Resist the temptation to send one more tweet.
Step away from the screen,
Away from the screen and go to sleep. (Go to sleep)

Step away from the screen,
Away from the screen and go to sleep. (Go to sleep)
