My baby bought a PC, plugged it in
Things ain't been the same since then
Every morning she fires up her modem to see what she can see
She just handed me a printout of my entire family tree

   Where'd she get it?
She got it off the Internet
She got it on the Internet
She got it off the Internet
She got it on the Internet
Where'd she get it?
She got it off the Internet

Loggin' on with new friends down at AOL
I said, "Baby, you neglect me" / She said, "Oh, well"
She's been hangin' out in chatrooms / She's got a webpage, too
She received an Instant Message from a man in Timbuktu

   Where'd she get that Instant Message?
She got it off the Internet  [chorus]

My baby's been downloadin' everything she sees
Freeware, skins and plug-ins, even MP3's
Fillin' up her hard drive, tyin' up the telephone wire
But now she's caught a virus and she can't get on line

   That sounds nasty!  Where'd she pick it up?
She got it off the Internet  [chorus]

My baby crosses platforms, Windows and Mac
She's always at her desktop, learnin' how to hack
Robbin' banks and stealin' secrets, her alias is "Peepin' Tom"
She just crashed the server for all of Amazon dot com

   Does she use Linux?    -- Mad Dog
She got it off the Internet  [chorus]

The FBI came and took my baby away
The judge said, "Lady, hackin' ain't okay"
So now she sells vacations from a laptop in her prison cell
I'm gettin' my own e-mail now, and she's gettin' ten to twelve

   That's a long vacation    -- All expenses paid, too
She got it off the Internet  [chorus]
