I'm breaking through computer screens
And running in your living room, a via-tele-digi wretch like me
Chasing all my dreams into a cable
Where they beam them out into a billion homes across the sea
Take to the streets tonight
To live your life, to do what's right
Sometimes you gotta stand and fight
Do you hear the bass so low?
Do you hear the bass so low?
Do you hear the bass so low?
I haven't had the pleasure of experience
Until I met the master of the never ending promises
'Cause every time I look into the mirror
All I'm seeing is a parody and image laughing back at me
Take me out when you go
'Cause I don't wanna miss the chance
To be part of the show, no
Do you hear the bass so low?
Do you hear the bass so low?
Do you hear the bass so low?
Do you hear the bass so low?
The signal's fading fast and I just don't know what to do
I'm waiting for a message on the radio from you
I'm waiting here for you, I'm waiting here for you
Do you hear the bass so low?
Do you hear the bass so low?
Do you hear the bass so low?
Do you hear the bass so low? Yeah
