Lyrics

Another day in your dead-end employment
Another week's pay in your hand, head out enjoyment
This could be the one where it's coming together
Meeting someone changing your life over a blether
It could end up just being more of the same
Getting to the end and you reset the game
A shame that you never seem to get anything done
Blame it on the boogie and the moon and the sun
Question is to be in dreams when they come
Or not, session is priority one
Fuck side hustling or cleaning the house
You're young sure it's bustling
And you should be out living your best life
Coz right now you're in it
And you wanna be looking back and say that you did it
Til one day you wake up the years went like minutes
And you wanted to do it but then the fear meant you didn't

You got that fear of missing
You got that fear
You got that fear of missing
You got that fear

Monday grimmed out stressing with fear
One day what possessed me to drag myself here
Chest tight not funny reason unclear
Oh that's right need the money for to pay for the gear
Tuesday still dying I'm having a smoke
Seriously lads feel like I'm having a stroke
The horrors getting worse every week it's no joke
But I need to sweat and work or it'll be bleak I'll be broke
Wednesday better day feeling more human
Appetite ravenous eating like Paul Newman
Analyze exactly just what I'm doing
Never again I'm saying and it's true and
I mean it this time until Thursday comes round
After work a few of us are heading to town
Something could happen so I go and then it doesn't
A zombie all week but on Friday I'm buzzing

You got that fear of missing
You got that fear
You got that fear of missing
You got that fear

One by one your mates turn into bores
They're knee deep in nappies and they're drowning in chores
The wedding and the ring and the car and the house
They're forgetting about the ching and the bars and the stout
The pubbing and the clubbing the parties and the dancing
The loving of the drugging the smarties they're enhancing
Your vibe, you're alive, your friends are now younger
And when they in turn grow you've still got the hunger
You're wondering why nothing is filling the void
You're under a roof you've got clothes and you're employed
Avoiding the question cause you fear the answer
But deep down you know it and it grows like a
Chancer who never took the chance in front of him
Was waiting on something and then fate made a cunt of him
Supposed that it tricked him that's where he went wrong
He missed out fell victim was the fear all along

You got that fear of missing
You got that fear
You got that fear of missing
You got that fear

Well there's a crowd says I'm alright
Well there's a crowd says I'm alright
