Almost got it, I think. From listening to both versions on youtube.

I've
(???)
Just what I’m loading
But I’m
Gonna stream
From the Netflix in my view
And what's “also recommended for you” (?)
When I watch the youtube clip
and I want the ad to skip
When I’m surfin’ on the net
And I browse with no regret
Seeing cats that I just don’t know
Seeing cats that I just don’t know

Sky
Has made
Very bad connection
But I’m
Gonna sign
Into email if I can
Because it makes me feel like I have friends
When I put a password in the box
And I see the taskbar loading up
And I’m scrolling on my page
And I go to links all day
Seeing cats that I just don’t know
Seeing cats that I just don’t know

I
Wish that
It was just 20 years ago
I
Wish that
I had a chatroom chat
On a great big landline phone
While no one could call my home
I’d hear the dial-up connection tone
Away from the NSA
And all the clickbait aimed my way
And all the junkmail in my box
And all the passwords that I forgot
And all the apps that I’ve installed
And all the gifs, or jifs, or whatever they’re called
And the cats that I just don’t know
And the cats that I just don’t know

Internet
Be the death of me
Internet
Cuz it’s my wi-fi
And it’s my hi-fi
‘Cause the modem on my wall
Leads to a router by my bed
And thank God books are as good as dead
And when the internet’s in my network
And the network’s in my range
And thank God that the login didn’t change
And thank God that the signal’s strong
And thank God I don’t pay for songs
And thank God my wiki’s still online
And for ebooks (???) and vines
And for cats that I just don’t know
And for cats that I just don’t know

Thanks for sharing, I hadn't heard this song yet! Has it been released?

I think it's unreleasable because it's a burlesque of "Heroin" by the Velvet Underground. Try youtube.
