Get Set Go Kid

Get set, go, kid
There’s an entire world to live
Beyond your middle city apartment
Awards rain, it’s a sports day
Everyone gets a prize
Even stubborn on the side bench
For cautioning a step outside
Get set, go, kid
Accept this plastic medal
Creep back home to hide
Well done, you did it
You’re alive
Tears avalanche in search of a sleeve
You survived pesticides
Sertraline, nicotine
Such behaviour romanticised
Here comes the danger
This is not the life
Get set, go, kid
Sown into the sofa
You ignore my presence
Not even your eyes blink
When I ask you a question
You did it
You’re alive
You did it
You’re alive
You did it
You’re alive
You did it
You’re alive
There’s an entire world to live
Beyond your middle city apartment
