It's Not OK Songtext
Stop living your life for the alarm

that wakes you up every day at eight

leave your Peugeot on the forecourt

it's all too much for you to take

your girlfriend don't love you but still she slaves
to make a home for you to stay

the people above you they keep you held down

the boys, the boys you'd love to make



leaning on your fence when you told me

you were gonna make lots of money

be a princess, diamonds and cigarettes

rolling out the carpet to regrets

now you're not so young it's too easy

to be a dreamer, wake up and be free
your clock is ticking fast friend, believe me

you only get one chance, can you hear me



it's not OK to be this way

it's not OK to be a slave



stop living your life for a man in a tie

he's just a fool the same as you

his daughter don't love him but still he slaves

to make a way for her to choose

her teenage dreams are here today

but in the morning they'll be gone

washed away by the minimum wage

the same, the same as everyone



leaning on your fence when you told me

you were gonna make lots of money

be a princess, diamonds and cigarettes

rolling out the carpet to regrets

now you're not so young it's too easy

to be a dreamer, wake up and be free

your clock is ticking fast friend, believe me

you only get one chance, can you hear me



it's not OK to be this way

it's not OK to be a slave



leaning on your fence when you told me

you were gonna make lots of money

be a princess, diamonds and cigarettes

rolling out the carpet to regrets

now you're not so young it's too easy

to be a dreamer, wake up and be free

your clock is ticking fast friend, believe me

you only get one chance, can you hear me



it's not OK to be this way

not OK to be this way

not OK to be this way

not OK to be a slave

to be a slave

to be a slave
