Distraction

Distraction, oh distraction
In places we wouldn't have imagined
Just a few years ago


Have I been that driver
Slightly delayed at the stop light
Trying to send a text?


To be quite honest, no
But the temptation is there
I have a minute, right?
I can look up this or reply to that


Who doesn't need to space out a minute
While the children play on the floor?
Watch the latest video
Of some animal's cute snore


Distraction leads to more distraction
Wait, who was in that movie?
Did I need to grab something at the store?
Johnny just took his first step
Walked right out the open door


At the gym
Runners fly around the track
Walkers amble at a relaxed pace
Here's distracted guy playing Angry Birds
Weaving all over the place


You feel it with any free minute
Maybe waiting for an elevator
Or in line at the store
You could be alone with your thoughts...
Oh wait, it's Sunday and you're missing the game.
Got to find out the score.
