Lookup !

Lookup
Lookup
Lookup from your phone!!

Your eyes are burning
Your heart is churning

Lookup to live
Look down to flounder

Stop giving in to all the demand
Your better than this, remove your hand

Lookup to live
Look down to flounder

You’re living inside the machine
A terrible example for children to be seen

Lookup to live
Look down to flounder

Have a look at your little finger
It’s all misshapen to support that spinner

Lookup to live
Look down to flounder

Your eyes are worth a billion each
The adverts that you eat sending techies to the beach

Lookup to live
Look down to flounder

The birdsong is unheard
The sunset is missed
Your attention is unbroken
And your mind is pissed

Lookup to live
Look down to flounder

Lookup
Lookup
Lookup from your phone!!
