    Story Behind the Song
    This song was recorded live at ConChord 2000. See http://www.conchord.org for more information on ConChord.

    The song is written in two parts, much the same way as the original song is written. The verses are about what's happening in the real world, and the choruses are what's happening in the mind of the person singing the song.

    Lyrics
    Comfortably Dumb
    By Tony Fabris
    To the tune of "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd
    (c) 2000 Tony Fabris


    Hello, system admin, can I help you?
    You say you broke your password,
    and can I help you log on?

    Come on, now, you know the server's down.
    So calmly count to ten
    and you can log right in again.

    Relax, the server needs to boot up first.
    Your shouting just distracts,
    and makes my head hurt even worse.

    You have no brain, it's self-defeating.
    I'll bet you rode the short bus to high school.
    Tell me, did you grow up in a cave?
    Your lips move but you don't know what you're saying.

    A five year old child can work a computer.
    And they can do it twice as well as you.
    You have no real skills, you just pretend.
    I just explained, but you don't understand,
    now you just asked again.

    You have become comfortably dumb.

    (Guitar Solo)

    You have become comfortably dumb.

    Okay, just a little mouse click.
    No don't click there- AAAAAAaaaaaaa....
    You better find your backups quick.

    Can you boot up? I do believe it's working, phew.
    Yeah, this happens every now and then.
    Just don't format drive C: again.

    You have no brain, it's self-defeating.
    I'll bet you rode the short bus to high school.
    Tell me, did you grow up in a cave?
    Your lips move but you don't know what you're saying.

    You wiped all those files without the slightest hint
    that it would make your system fry.
    What kind of mushrooms are you on?
    I cannot give you more support right now.
    Don't ask for help, you're too far gone.

    You have become comfortably dumb.
