Status Quo Baby

Intro
“Let’s just go and follow the status quo!”

Verse
Walking down a city street
They stride on by
Purpose in their direction
Looking to achieve connection

Their mind on where to go and
Who to meet and
How to raise their profile
Fundamentally improve their lifestyle

Chorus
Status quo baby, your bar is set so high
Your life is always by design, cloud nine
And when you make it, well it’s just another rung
A little higher and it’ll be, more fun

Verse
When others talk they listen
Biding their time
To share what they have learned
They don’t mind who they burn

Bridge
You might have the look, honey
All the time
But, deep inside are you free?
Who are you really
Behind the shine?
Do you ever, stop to see

Verse
Life is a series of goals
And networks
Building their reputation
Seeking more adulation

Interlude
BMW, Gucci
Dior, Armani
Jimmy Choo, Ferrari
Louis Vuitton

Chorus
