Lynks - On Trend

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1985913
Intro
"I'm a big believer in clean air, clean water"
"The whole country should get together and do that"
"And they should do it for themselves"

Verse
The ice caps are melting
And people are falling into gaps in the ice caps
(Total collapse!)
The ocean is rising
So say goodbye to Brighton
It's Atlantis now with better nights on
(It's frightening!)
The crops are failing
The food is all in shortage
We'll require a second mortgage
(To survive!)

Pre-Chorus
And what a time to stay alive
With crisis as the zeitgeist, there's only one way to survive

Chorus
You've got to stay on trend
Say it again, say it again!
Stay on trend
Say it again, say it again!
Stay on trend
Say it again, say it again!
Stay on trend
Say it again, say it again!

Verse
I go to the gym
I practice mindfulness daily
Feel so enlightened
Go to farmers markets
Processed shit is harmful
Positive karma
Banana pancakes with gluten free flour every morning
Up at dawn
Do pilates
Only drink at parties
Visit the Saatchi
Give up eggs
Give up gluten
Give up processed sugars
Calibrate my chakras
Call me Chakra Khan
I'm every woman

Pre-Chorus
And for a second I forget the world is doomed
And there's not much we can do
But it will be alright as long as you

Chorus
Stay on trend
Say it again, say it again!
Stay on trend
Say it again, say it again!
Stay on trend
Say it again, say it again!
Stay on trend
Say it again, say it again!

Break
"Hi, and welcome to Headspace"
"So no matter what's going on in your life right now"
"No matter how many thoughts are racing around your mind"
"No matter how the body's feeling"
"Just take a moment to sit down"
"And take a big deep breath"
"Breathing in through the nose"
"Lungs expanding"
"As you breath out, sense of letting go"

Verse
Aaah! I'm fucking terrified!
My unborn child is going to die
While everyone says paper cups, metal straws and glass containers
In my mind it's a no brainer
I complain about complainers
While on a plane to Spain
Pumping propane through the atmospheric membrane
I can't take it! I can't face it!
I'm a hypocrite!
I'm shameless!
I went pescatarian but broke it on an almost daily basis!

Outro
So I am part of the problem
It's not that I wanted
At least I'm being honest
(At least I'm being honest)
