Lyrics

In Control


2 hours on the treadmill
And in to work by 8
Espresso and croissants at your work space
Next year's projections can't seem to wait
They just can't wait

Back to back budget meetings
Take you up to One
Granola bar and some prune juice
Will work till you get the job done
Get the job done

Chorus

You're scared that your life gets too chaotic
You never have a single moment to waste
Eat everything that's macrobiotic
But you still can't remember the taste


Verse

2 more hours on the treadmill
Your yoga session is running late
Get yourself a couple of hours of sleep
And then you meditate
You meditate

Bridge

Catching up on paperwork
Over the weekend
Try to forget the office
Success ? That all depends


Chorus

You're scared that your life is too chaotic
You're driven, you're such an ordered soul
You might well be a robotic
No matter how much you try
You're not in control


You're scared that your life is too chaotic
You never have a single moment to waste
Eat everything that's macrobiotic
But you still can't remember the taste
