Children Of The Internet

David Omoregie, Esmeralda Devlin, Fraser Thorneycroft-Smith

Lyrics Translation

Look
I grew up in a good but a changing age
My wife and kids, Damon Wayan's
When the youth club was everybody's favorite place
Where if you spoke to a girl, then it was face to face
Bro, I've seen a heart of a hood turn trendy
Kids loose interest, parks turn empty
Social media has got us all less friendly
Now can't you see the irony?
She's got game when she types to me
But nothing in person, that ain't the type for me
Asking, "Can we go for dinner yet?" In the flesh
No conversation, no intellect
The future generation of the children of the internet

Look
It's all changing, I'm seeing it now
You can meet a hundred people without leaving your house
Putting pictures in the frames and memory in the clouds
You know everybody keeps their memories in the cloud
We finally found a voice and we ain't speaking as loud
People only wanna listen to the sheep in the crowd
And any other statement gets you cancelled by an activist
That's never helped the cause that they're tweeting about
Do you blame public figures and personalities
For giving little kids a warped view of reality?
Or blame all of the apps that make a killing
And finding a sweet spot in your self hating vanity?
Could you argue that it's borderline dangerous
To take a picture of a girl's face
And start changing it in one quick filter?
Your nose looks thinner, your eyes look fuller, your lips look bigger
Your software is better and your phone knows everything
If anything it's getting George Orwellian

Yeah, look
It's all connected
Nobody's protected from business collectives

Children of the Internet
Your info collected

As a species, we now have to redefine what it means to be connected
(Children of the Internet)

A recent study showed that the average person earnestly
Swipes, taps, pinches their phone a million times a year
(Your info collected)

People feel naked, inadequate
And utterly vulnerable without their phone
It's a primary conduit of personal, social and work life
(Children of the Internet)

There are more active cell phones on the planet than people
The mobile phone is both a connection and disconnection device
It is typically places between the human and it's surroundings
Tuning the surroundings out

Look
Olhe
I grew up in a good but a changing age
Eu cresci numa boa, mas numa era em mudança
My wife and kids, Damon Wayan's
Minha esposa e filhos, Damon Wayan's
When the youth club was everybody's favorite place
Quando o clube da juventude era o lugar favorito de todos
Where if you spoke to a girl, then it was face to face
Onde se você falava com uma garota, então era cara a cara
Bro, I've seen a heart of a hood turn trendy
Cara, eu vi o coração de um bairro se tornar moderno
Kids loose interest, parks turn empty
Crianças perdem o interesse, parques ficam vazios
Social media has got us all less friendly
As redes sociais nos tornaram todos menos amigáveis
Now can't you see the irony?
Agora você não vê a ironia?
She's got game when she types to me
Ela tem jogo quando ela digita para mim
But nothing in person, that ain't the type for me
Mas nada pessoalmente, esse não é o tipo para mim
Asking, "Can we go for dinner yet?" In the flesh
Perguntando, "Podemos ir jantar ainda?" Em carne e osso
No conversation, no intellect
Sem conversa, sem intelecto
The future generation of the children of the internet
A futura geração dos filhos da internet
Look
Olhe
It's all changing, I'm seeing it now
Está tudo mudando, estou vendo agora
You can meet a hundred people without leaving your house
Você pode conhecer cem pessoas sem sair de casa
Putting pictures in the frames and memory in the clouds
Colocando fotos nas molduras e memória nas nuvens
You know everybody keeps their memories in the cloud
Você sabe que todo mundo guarda suas memórias na nuvem
We finally found a voice and we ain't speaking as loud
Finalmente encontramos uma voz e não estamos falando tão alto
People only wanna listen to the sheep in the crowd
As pessoas só querem ouvir as ovelhas na multidão
And any other statement gets you cancelled by an activist
E qualquer outra declaração faz você ser cancelado por um ativista
That's never helped the cause that they're tweeting about
Que nunca ajudou a causa sobre a qual estão twittando
Do you blame public figures and personalities
Você culpa figuras públicas e personalidades
For giving little kids a warped view of reality?
Por dar às crianças uma visão distorcida da realidade?
Or blame all of the apps that make a killing
Ou culpa todos os aplicativos que fazem uma matança
And finding a sweet spot in your self hating vanity?
E encontram um ponto doce na sua vaidade auto depreciativa?
Could you argue that it's borderline dangerous
Você poderia argumentar que é perigosamente na fronteira
To take a picture of a girl's face
Tirar uma foto do rosto de uma garota
And start changing it in one quick filter?
E começar a mudá-lo com um filtro rápido?
Your nose looks thinner, your eyes look fuller, your lips look bigger
Seu nariz parece mais fino, seus olhos parecem mais cheios, seus lábios parecem maiores
Your software is better and your phone knows everything
Seu software é melhor e seu telefone sabe tudo
If anything it's getting George Orwellian
Se alguma coisa, está ficando Orwelliano
Yeah, look
Sim, olhe
It's all connected
Está tudo conectado
Nobody's protected from business collectives
Ninguém está protegido dos coletivos empresariais

People feel naked, inadequate

There are more active cell phones on the planet than people
Há mais celulares ativos no planeta do que pessoas
The mobile phone is both a connection and disconnection device
O celular é tanto um dispositivo de conexão quanto de desconexão
It is typically places between the human and it's surroundings
Normalmente é colocado entre o humano e seus arredores
Tuning the surroundings out
Sintonizando os arredores para fora
Look
Mira
I grew up in a good but a changing age
Crecí en una buena pero cambiante era
My wife and kids, Damon Wayan's
Mi esposa e hijos, Damon Wayan's
When the youth club was everybody's favorite place
Cuando el club juvenil era el lugar favorito de todos
Where if you spoke to a girl, then it was face to face
Donde si hablabas con una chica, entonces era cara a cara
Bro, I've seen a heart of a hood turn trendy
Hermano, he visto el corazón de un barrio volverse moderno
Kids loose interest, parks turn empty
Los niños pierden interés, los parques se vacían
Social media has got us all less friendly
Las redes sociales nos han hecho menos amigables
Now can't you see the irony?
¿No puedes ver la ironía?
She's got game when she types to me
Ella tiene juego cuando me escribe
But nothing in person, that ain't the type for me
Pero nada en persona, ese no es el tipo para mí
Asking, "Can we go for dinner yet?" In the flesh
Preguntando, "¿Podemos ir a cenar ya?" En persona

Look
Mira
It's all changing, I'm seeing it now
Todo está cambiando, lo estoy viendo ahora
You can meet a hundred people without leaving your house
Puedes conocer a cien personas sin salir de tu casa
Putting pictures in the frames and memory in the clouds
Poniendo fotos en los marcos y la memoria en las nubes
You know everybody keeps their memories in the cloud
Sabes que todo el mundo guarda sus recuerdos en la nube
We finally found a voice and we ain't speaking as loud
Finalmente encontramos una voz y no estamos hablando tan alto
People only wanna listen to the sheep in the crowd
La gente solo quiere escuchar a las ovejas en la multitud
And any other statement gets you cancelled by an activist
Y cualquier otra declaración te hace ser cancelado por un activista
That's never helped the cause that they're tweeting about
Que nunca ha ayudado a la causa de la que están twitteando
Do you blame public figures and personalities
¿Culpas a las figuras públicas y personalidades
For giving little kids a warped view of reality?
Por dar a los niños una visión distorsionada de la realidad?
Or blame all of the apps that make a killing
¿O culpas a todas las aplicaciones que hacen un asesinato
And finding a sweet spot in your self hating vanity?
Y encontrar un punto dulce en tu vanidad auto-odiosa?
Could you argue that it's borderline dangerous
¿Podrías argumentar que es peligroso
To take a picture of a girl's face
Tomar una foto de la cara de una chica
And start changing it in one quick filter?
Y empezar a cambiarla con un rápido filtro?
Your nose looks thinner, your eyes look fuller, your lips look bigger
Tu nariz se ve más delgada, tus ojos se ven más llenos, tus labios se ven más grandes

Where if you spoke to a girl, then it was face to face

Now can't you see the irony?
Ne vois-tu pas l'ironie ?
She's got game when she types to me

But nothing in person, that ain't the type for me
Mais rien en personne, ce n'est pas mon genre

You know everybody keeps their memories in the cloud
Tu sais que tout le monde garde ses souvenirs dans le nuage
We finally found a voice and we ain't speaking as loud
Nous avons enfin trouvé une voix et nous ne parlons pas aussi fort
People only wanna listen to the sheep in the crowd
Les gens veulent seulement écouter les moutons dans la foule
And any other statement gets you cancelled by an activist
Et toute autre déclaration te fait annuler par un activiste
That's never helped the cause that they're tweeting about
Qui n'a jamais aidé la cause dont ils tweetent
Do you blame public figures and personalities
Blames-tu les personnalités publiques et les personnalités
For giving little kids a warped view of reality?
Pour donner aux petits enfants une vision déformée de la réalité ?
Or blame all of the apps that make a killing
Ou blâmes-tu toutes les applications qui font un carton
And finding a sweet spot in your self hating vanity?
Et qui trouvent un point faible dans ta vanité auto-détestée ?
Could you argue that it's borderline dangerous
Pourrais-tu soutenir que c'est dangereux
To take a picture of a girl's face
De prendre une photo du visage d'une fille
And start changing it in one quick filter?
Et de commencer à la changer avec un filtre rapide ?
Your nose looks thinner, your eyes look fuller, your lips look bigger

Kids loose interest, parks turn empty
Kinder verlieren das Interesse, Parks werden leer
Social media has got us all less friendly
Soziale Medien haben uns alle weniger freundlich gemacht

Could you argue that it's borderline dangerous
Könnte man argumentieren, dass es grenzwertig gefährlich ist

Ein Bild von einem Mädchen zu machen
