[Verse 1] Coding fast upon the keyboard Typing commands into the shell Just a million characters on the black screen [Chorus] You ping, you ping But nothing answers (nothing answers) NO ROUTE TO HOST! [Verse 2] I'm gonna check the cables The RJ45 is plugged right in The damn switch is blinking (it's blinking!) [Chorus] You ping, you ping But nothing answers (nothing answers) NO ROUTE TO HOST! [Verse 3] I'm summoning the ancient gods (But) No help from them at all Checking my hosts file for some clues [Bridge] (Instrumental build-up with heavy synth/guitar solo) [Verse 4] All around is total silence A lonely client on the net Leading packets straight to nowhere [Chorus] You ping, you ping But nothing answers (nothing answers) NO ROUTE TO HOST! [Chorus] You ping, you ping But nothing answers (nothing answers) NO ROUTE TO HOST! [Outro] [Screaming] NO! ROUTE! TO! HOOOOOOOOOOOST!!! (Fade out with distorted modem sounds)
