Pop/rock stars telling us about how meaningless modern life is

We know. We know because we have to live that life. We know that people aren't meant to spend their time working in cubicles because we get 40 hours a week in which to think about it. We know that we're just slaving away to earn money. Of course we are. We have to get the money to buy your records somehow.

If you're going to muse about how miserable modern life is, at least have the decency to lead as miserable an existence as the rest of us. Otherwise it just comes off as boasting.

Hello Blue and Brown,

would you be meaning lyrics like this by any chance?

Some people get up at the break of day
Gotta go to work before it gets too late
Sitting in a car and driving down the road
It ain't the way it has to be

But that's what you do to earn your daily wage
That's the kind of world that we're living in today
Isn't where you wanna be
And isn't what you wanna do

Just give me one more day (one more day)
Give me another night (just another night)
I need a second chance (second chance)
This time I'll get it right (This time I'll get it right)

I just thoght I would post these as I know they are Blue and Brown;'s favourite lyrics.


You've got to fly
You've got to fly
You've got to fly

It's just like flying through the air
It's just like flying through the air
It's just like flying through the air

Ah you can make it if you dare
You live your life without a care
You know that love is everywhere

Now you wanna fly, reach the sky
so come on, come on
I see the world you live, remain so big
so come on, come on
Come on come on

You send your message through the air
Recieve it loud and clear
You send your message through the air
Ah can you aim high to the sky
You never know unless you try,
Can you aim high to the sky

Now you wanna fly so reach the sky
Come on, come on

I see the world you live, remain so big
So come on, come on
Come on come on

You've got to fly
You've got to fly
You need to fly
You've got to fly
You need to fly
You've got to fly
You've got to fly
You've got to fly

Love is all around you
You know it all
And you see it all
So come on, come on

Now you wanna fly, reach the sky
Come on, come on
I see the world you live, remain so big
So come on, come on
Come on come on

You've got to fly
You've got to fly
You've got to fly
You've got to fly
You need to fly (Love is all)
You've got to fly (Love is all)
You've got to fly (Love is all)
You've got to fly (Love is all)
You need to fly (Love is all)
You've got to fly (Love is all)
You've got to fly (Love is all)
You've got to fly (Love is all)
