Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Like a shipwrecked mariner
Adrift on an unknown sea
Clinging to the wreckage of
The lost ship Fantasy
[Verse 2]
I'm a castaway, stranded in a desolate land
I can see the footprints in the virtual sand
[Verse 3]
Net boy, net girl, send your signal round the world
Let your fingers walk and talk and set you free
Net boy, net girl, send your impulse round the world
Put your message in a modem and throw it in the cyber sea
[Verse 4]
Astronauts in the weightlessness
Of pixelated space
Exchange graffiti with
A disembodied race
[Verse 5]
I can save the universe
In a grain of sand
I can hold the future
In my virtual hand
[Verse 6]
Net boy, net girl, send your signal round the world
Let your fingers walk and talk and set you free
Net boy, net girl, send your impulse round the world
Put your message in a modem and throw it in the cyber sea
[Verse 7]
Let's dance tonight to a virtual song
Press this key and you can play along
Let's fly tonight on our virtual wings
Press this key to see amazing things
To see amazing things
[Verse 8]
Like a pair of vagabonds
Who wave between two passing trains
Or the glimpse of a woman's smile
Through a window in the rain
[Verse 9]
I can smell her perfume, I can taste her lips
I can feel her voltage from her fingertips
[Verse 10]
Net boy, net girl, send your signal round the world
Let your fingers walk and talk and set you free
Net boy, net girl, send your impulse round the world
Put your message in a modem and throw it in the cyber sea
[Verse 11]
Put your message in a modem and throw it in the cyber sea
