The Lyrics

A forlorn man with a laptop and a bad wireless link just can't maintain his connection to the network.
Network's bigger
It's bigger than you
But you cannot join
The access points I go to
The protocols I need
Oh no I've tried too much
to set it up

That's me in the corner
That's me with the laptop
Losing my connection.
Trying to get onto the net
Oh but my wireless link can't do it
Oh I download too much
bandwidth's not enough
I thought that it would be working
I thought that I could connect
I think I thought I had to cry

Every session
and every workin hub I'm
choosing my encryption
I triple E yeah eight oh, two.
My signal's lost and I'm a fool
Now I reboot too much
I boot it up

Consider this
Spread across the spectrum
Consider this
errors in the bit sum.
authentication failed
Could be all these wireless
networks shutting down
Ah the net so sucks.
I thought that it would be working
I thought that I could connect
I think I thought I had to cry

That is how the net works
That is how it works.
