Singer/Songwriter Pat Regan performs his hilarious song, “Facebook Stalking (My More Successful Friends)” in which he laments about staying up way too late, spending too much time on social media to see what his friends are doing and feeling inadequate in comparison, that is until he realizes that it’s all an illusion.

I stayed up til 5 am again
Fa fa fa fa fa fa Facebook stalking my more successful friends
Jack’s got a house, Jane’s in Tangiers
I made 11 thousand dollars last year
Your girlfriend’s a 10 and mine’s not even real
Facebook stalking my more successful friends
Jeff just got cast on an HBO show
I’m on my ass watching HBO Go…

But I only get half the story when
I’m Fa fa fa fa fa fa Facebook stalking my more successful friends
Cuz Jack’s new house just got repossessed
Jane’s in jail in Tangier for writing fake checks
HBO got Zach Braff and fired poor Jeff
