We’re all living in la la land
We know, we’re here and we’ve seen
Scenes and people who act out of sorts
Who don’t say what they think that they mean
So weird when you’re living in la la land
With the comings and goings that seem
To superimpose a reality that’s false
On the lives of those caught in between
Bizarre are the sightings in strange la la land
Galleries once unforeseen
Semblant sanity stuck in our craws
Distortion of movements obscene
It’s said when you’re living in la la land
Survival depends on serene
Pretence and delusion at what is the cause
Drifting through it as if it’s a dream
Some of the happenings in la la land
Rival strange stories from screen
Productions directed with too many flaws
Churned out from a failing machine
Watching the workings of la la land
And doing our damnedest to glean
Whether the movie’s on fast forward or pause
Or rewinding to where we have been
Reckon we’re all actors in la la land
Backstage behind a smokescreen
And when the air clears – or not – as sod’s law
Expert critics will pan what they’ve seen
