The answer is not on your phone..
So stop staring at it in your zombie zone
There is nothing there to see
Nothing there to help your life feel free
We go from day to day
Looking down, nothing new to say
Lost on the street and in the shops
Blind to nature and blind to clocks
Put that flipping thing away
Stop living in the afray
Look up instead of down
Look forward to life, drop that frown.

Blind to nature and blind to clocks
Put that flipping thing away
Stop living in the afray
Look up instead of down
Look forward to life, drop that frown.
