Lyrics:

(M. Cooper, B. Higgins, T. Larcombe, L. Cowling)



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



You've gotta get it, you've gotta get it and pretty soon

You'll find the fingers fit

You've gotta get it, you've 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 pass 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



(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 keeps 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



Dance while your dollar going up, up, up and

Catch your lucky number whilst it's rising, rising

Chance comes a calling go and 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 and on my mind

It started with a drink

That pretty 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 that look)

Or I'll keeps 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



Dance while your dollar going up, up, up and

Catch your lucky number whilst it's rising, rising

Chance comes a calling go and knock, knock, knock

It's better to be living than surviving, viving



Dance while your dollar going up, up, up and

Catch your lucky number whilst it's rising, rising

Chance comes a calling go and knock, knock, knock

It's better to be living than surviving, viving, viving, viving, viving
