Cos baby this is real life
You wanna get your mind on your occupation
The moment's got to feel right
Cos honey if it don't then get out the station
Cos baby this is real life
You wanna get your mind on your occupation
The moment's got to feel right
Cos honey if it don't then get out the station (Station....)

You gotta get it, you gotta get it
And pretty soon you'll find the figures fit
You gotta get it, you gotta get it
And find your groove before the others trip

It started with a look
And pretty soon it was a Valentine
And when the whole earth shook
I passed him over to a friend of mine

He started as a squeeze
But pretty soon he was a tourniquet
I'll take my life back please
I liked it better with the time to play (Time to play)

Show us your look
I think I'm falling
Show us your look
I'm not done crawling
Show us that look
Or I'll keep stalling you

I was thinking of nights without you
Damn right I'll see it through
And I was thinking of life without me
And now I know it's just insanity

Cos baby this is real life
You wanna get your mind on your occupation
The moment's got to feel right
Cos honey if it don't then get out the station
Cos baby this is real life
You wanna get your mind on your occupation
The moment's got to feel right
Cos honey if it don't then get out the station (Station...)

Dance while your dollar going up, up, up
And catch your lucky number while it's rising, rising
Chance comes a calling going knock, knock, knock
It's better to be living than surviving

It started with a kiss
And pretty soon it was a compromise
But with a kung fu twist
I pulled his focus back in on my mind
It started with a drink
Then baby soon became a waterfall
But then my face turned pink
Cos I believed him when he said he'd call (Said he'd call)

Show us your look
I think I'm falling
Show us your look
I'm not done crawling
Show us the look

Or I'll keep stalling you
I was thinking of nights without you
Damn right I'll see it through
And I was thinking of life without me
And now I know it's just insanity

Cos baby this is real life
You wanna get your mind on your occupation
The moment's got to feel right
Cos honey if it don't then get out the station
Cos baby this is real life
You wanna get your mind on your occupation
The moment's got to feel right
Cos honey if it don't then get out the station (Station...)

Dance while your dollar going up, up, up
And catch your lucky number while it's rising, rising
Chance comes a calling going knock, knock, knock
It's better to be living than surviving

Dance while your dollar going up, up, up
And catch your lucky number while it's rising, rising
Chance comes a calling going knock, knock, knock
It's better to be living than surviving, viving

Viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving, viving

Cos baby this is real life (life....)
