BEHIND
Ola Onabule © 2010

Flash your phone and shoot some mail.
Check the stats and close a sale.
Grab a skinny on the move.
Hit the gym and skim the news.
You don't have to spare time, coz time's always on your side.

Plan your week, schedule your year,
Like rest's a jaded souvenir. Play the field, to field a catch.
Career's your ever perfect match.
You're living the dream, let someone else live a life

Made a pretty picture real clear,
Still there's something missing right here.

Shooting off to Mars,
Scrambling for the stars,
Feel like something's been left behind.

It's gone too far for me,
I just need the simple needs,
I’ll take love, leave the rest behind,

Upgrade the car, update your spouse.
Enhance your face, improve the house.
Pose like in the magazine Invent a truth to sell the dream.
They see you as you are, you've probably gone too far

Made a pretty picture real clear
Still there's something missing right here.
