Keep Your Feet On The Ground

Common-sense advice

lyrics

If you want to keep the bloat away
Keep your feet on the ground
Don’t let your legs sway

Torn pages from magazines
Neurotic women
making public scenes

You know you ain’t got a lot
You’d better stock up now
And hope it lasts

A world of temptations
A party wardrobe
A coterie of friends is a heavy load

Ask yourself what Jesus would do
If he was here right now
Looking at you

It don’t matter what you want
That blonde on your couch
She ain’t gonna last

Broken teeth and a bad attitude
It ain’t what you are
It’s the path you choose

My head’s bursting
My tongue explodes
As they crank up the power on my electrodes

It don’t matter what they want
You’d better call it green
And flog it fast

Calves going from birth to burger
Gulp it down
Go a little bit further

Clean lines in digital heaven
Multi-coloured dazzle
Just a flash in the pan

You know it ain’t what I want
You can keep the kid
I’ll take the car!

Burning Zeros don’t fix the past
Got a Buddha on my back
And my arse up a mast

A wooden gator with a great gait
Juggling fish, a dog
And a birthday cake

You know it ain’t what you got
You’d better pawn the lot
And forget the past

Anything’d be better than this
But if it can’t be changed
Then I couldn’t care less

It ain’t enough I lost that feeling
Now it’s single-digit inflation
My head is reeling

You know it ain’t what I want
You’d better cut me loose

What’s a guy to do?
What’s a guy to do?
What’s a guy to do?
What’s a guy to do?
What’s a guy to do?
