"Just today, Hive favorites Gummy Soul dropped an R&B and hip-hop fused ode to Master Zuckerberg's addictive platform with this joyous tune, "I Can't Get Off the Facebook." It's funny, 'cause it's true." - MTV Hive, 5/17/2012

"The MC behind 2011's lauded Fela Soul mash-up today releases its follow-up—a grievance-packed ode to the social-networking vortex, backed with a jangly, jolly guitar riff and a chorus that you won't be able to wipe from your mind for days—and we do mean days—afterward. It's annoying, and brilliant, and perfectly Facebook. Gah!" - Time Out New York, 5/17/2012

Video shot by Larry Arace, Dave Kincaid, and Amerigo Gazaway
Edited by Amerigo Gazaway
Executive Producer: Rickey Mindlin

Lyrics:

I can't get off of the Facebook
I can't do it, nah i can't do it
I can't get off of the Facebook
Got the better of me

x2

Verse 1:

I got a page, but I'm about to switch all that,
cuz Facebook be tryin to play me now this shit's all wack,
why they always tryin to change things behind my back,
and just because I'm online doesn't mean I got time to chat,
so don't trip if I don't poke you back,
it's probably cuz I'm working on a dope new track,
and don't be mad cuz I don't accept friend requests,
and I don't friend every friend that my friend suggests,
It's a mess, when your stll friends with your ex,
make it hard to forget and move on to the next,
chattin online, can we move on to the sex?
Or can a guy at least get a call or a text?
i 'm vexed, cuz when it comes to friends I got quite a few,
not to mention the events that i'm invited to,
so don't take offense if I don't reply to you,
If you aren't on facebook then this does not apply to you...

Hook

Verse 2:

And now you're probably like, "who's this kid rappin on the microphone?"
Nowadays they got the Facebook app for every type of phone,
like it even matters though, cuz at the end of the day, don't you know?
Life ain't all about a status quo,
but you still gotta watch what you post
cuz your friends and employers are watching you close,
and you might run the risk of rockin the boat,
if you accidentally mention your boss in a joke,
if I - had a dime for every picture I'm tagged in,
Or every little petty conversation I'm dragged in,
I'd probably be a whole lot richer then I had been,
throw a huge party and make everyone the admin!
It's kinda sad man,
this shit is really lame,
I don't know why we keep playing these silly games,
for some reason I still choose to do it anyways,
find me on the Facebook, especially on rainy days....

Hook
