lyrics

We all have moments when we get down
And there’s nothing that we can do
Sometimes it almost seems as if the world gangs up on you
It feels like an uphill battle, struggling just to be around
But you gotta get back on your feet
Don’t take this lying down
Get up, then get back down and put your laptop on your lap
Just get online and start to post some inspirational crap

You can save the world with good intentions
You don’t actually have to do anything
Just like or share or mention
‘Cause we all can change for the better using minimal repairs
You can save the world with hashtag thoughts and prayers

Everyone will want to vote with you
If you wear a certain color shirt
They won’t know what they’re voting for
But it probably doesn’t hurt
And the soldiers fighting overseas
Will return in massive groups
If you add an Instagram filter
That says, “Bring home our troops”
Don’t wait, don’t hesitate to follow all the pointless trends
You can start a revolution
With all thirty-one of your Facebook friends

You can save the world like a motherfucker
Dump an ice bucket on your head
‘Cause donating is for suckers
And we don’t need soapboxes
When we’ve got computer chairs
You can save the world with hashtag thoughts and prayers

I remember when I was a kid
It used to matter what we actually did
Because the internet had not yet gone abuzz
But then all the girls I’d met before
Started posting the colors of the bras they wore
And suddenly I was aware of what breast cancer was
Yeah, breast cancer was cured because
The women posted the color of their bras
Remember when that happened?

You can treat any virus even without a GED
Find a post that’s anti-virus and type “amen” if you agree

Yeah, you can save the world from greed and malice
‘Cause the government counts emojis
When they get tired of counting ballots
If you’re unawares of the current affairs
You can help by not shaving your hairs
But only in November, because otherwise nobody cares
You can save the world with hashtag thoughts and
I’m sure you’re helping with your thoughts and prayers
You’re totally fixing stuff with thoughts and prayers
Thank god for you and all your thoughts and prayers
