Hey Stewie
When ya gonna log out that game
and get your life together again
Hey Stewie
Playing with your interspace
will only get you eye ache
Hey Stewie
Look at what you came for
Even though you leave
With nothing much to say
Hey Stewie
Get yourself off the web book
and your nose into a paper book
Hey Stewie
it's passed your bedtime
When ya gonna wake up
Or, when ya not gonna wake up
at all?
The net has you captured like tuna in the park zone
Your feet are webbed froms staying home too long
Hey Stewie, when ya gonna learn?
The internet don't have the answers
And you've been had all alonge

I like how using Stewie’s name gives this intimacy and believability to the scene. Something about the particular name made me feel like, this is a peer not a parent who is singing. Like Stewie’s parents call him Stewart but his brother (or maybe an old, old friend) still calls him Stewie. That made me feel like the narrator has been there. Like they’re gaming buddies but now the singer’s worried things have gone too far. There’s a strong tumbling forward rhythm to your words that adds an urgency to the lines. I like how the shorter Hey, Stewie lines change things up.

This is a very timely set of lyrics! I find myself stuck online via my phone or computer way too much of the time! I like how you identified the problem and even offered some solutions like paper book! Favorite line had to be "Your feet are webbed froms staying home too long"! I would love to hear this if you add music to it. Nice work!

The feet webbed line is my favorite for its double-meaning.

"Your feet are webbed from staying home too long" is a great line. I like the colloquial style you're using, it gives the song a natural flow.
