There's a Man in My Computer

I just saw a man in my computer
 

While I listened to Parliament, Mothership Connection live in Huston (1976)
While I played the chrome dinosaur game
While I watched a video without subtitles in a language I don't speak 
 

He's looking straight at me, what does he want?
I just want to learn, I just want to dance, 
But he's looking straight at me, telling me that what I'm doing is wrong.
 

He's unhappy, or maybe just really hungry. 
He might be jealous, I can tell that he gets upset when I look away.
He could just be curious, but I don't think it's nice that he wants to see everything I'm up to
 

Maybe soon he will leave, and I can get back to listening to Parliament and doing my shitty fucking russian homework with no subtitles.
