John Butler Trio – Good Excuse Lyrics 18 years ago
no halaku, i disagree.i think the song's talking about people in general who complain about their small problems and don't see whats happening in the 'real world'. the song's saying 'go take a step outside and see what's shaking in the real world' - pretty self explanatory really.

'Oh won’t you just wake up
feel the humming
This cruel world is killing you
better start running
Catch up with your life, catch on up
Before the whole thing is through'

this refers to all the people who live their life in regret and compaint, and that they should wake up from it before their life is over.
