Black Box Revelation - Mama Call Me, Please

Man got his things to do
Go to work to keep the city movin'
No time for breakfast, no morning s**
He's got a clock to watch

Happy faces on the train
At least that's what he'd hoped to see
But the truth is that they all look sad
That's when he cries out loud:

"Mama call me, please...
Mama call me, please, 'cause I lost it
Am I the only man trying to understand what's next?" Still there's his kids to feed
And the new phone ain't comin' cheap
So you bought a car to follow
The work he can't swallow
And the years fly by like
One day he wakes up old and keen
On travelling to places that he's never seen
But he can't move no more
'Cause his back's too sore
From all the work he's done

Mama call me, please
Mama call me, please, I lost it
Am I the only man trying to understand what's next?

Ain't got no time for crying
I'm way to busy dying
Move closer to the end
Who's next to take my land?
So many dreams are shattered
For things that didn't matter
No way to turn the tides
Too old and tired to fight
Too old and tired to fight
Too old and tired to fight
Too old and tired to fight
Too old and tired to fight
I lost it

Mama call me, please
Mama call me, please, I lost it
Am I the only man trying to understand what's next?
