Jim Allchin - Artificial Life Lyrics

I go through the motions every day
Shower and shave and work hard till payday
Convince myself, that this will suffice
But I know, it's a fool's paradise
It's so artificial
I've gotta, I've gotta an artificial life

I catch the train at 7:15
At the corner of Madison and Steen
Glance at a People magazine's best seller
Convince myself things couldn't be sweller
It's so artificial
I've gotta, gotta an artificial life

So, I grab a beer right after work
And I dream of being Captain Kirk
Always somewhere new to go
But I eat alone watching stupid talk shows
It's artificial
I've gotta an artificial life

I have fantasies each and every day
But I'm scared to change and step away
If I make one of these fantasies real
Then who knows, what my life would reveal
It's so artificial
It's hard to be true-to-life
True-to-life

It's so artificial
I've gotta an artificial life
It's so artificial, artificial life
It's artificial
It's so artificial
Gotta an artificial life
