Lyrics
Stay calm.
Don’t freak out.
It’s just your life.
Each day -
each bargain -
at such a low price.
You heed what they tell you
and buy what they sell you.
The ease has compelled you
to stay where you are.
You’re smart.
You get it.
Act like you’re dumb.
Live safe.
Be certain.
That’s how it’s done.
You’ll say that you’ve made it
but your dreams have just faded.
So you’ve become jaded
and settled for this.
Your days when compounded
just leave you dumbfounded.
You didn’t quite know it was
as bad as this sounds and well
now it’s too late
to become someone great
so you’ve settled for empty -
declared that it’s plenty.
You say life is lovely.
You’re making good money.
The future’s so sunny
you can’t see a thing.
