Real World Songtext
von Peter Green Splinter Group

I like to think I could make a lot of money
And I could give it all away
But there′s a price for a new generation
They make you pay it everyday
We're living in the real world

Sometimes I know I can′t wait any longer
So I try to do as much as I can
But there are times when I look in the mirror
I expect to see a younger man

We're living in the real world
Living with the lost and lonely
Living in the real world
And we can't get out

I look around me for the best situation
But everything seems the same
If I buy a ticket for the wrong destination
I′ve only got myself to blame


I′m living in the real world
Living with the lost and lonely
Living in the real world
And we can't get out
No, no I can′t get out
No, I can't get out

We′re living in the real world
Living with the lost and lonely
Living in the real world
And we can't get out

If we keep working for a good reputation
Maybe we get the chance to do it all
We′ll take the blues from the Mississippi Delta
And play it in the free trade hall

I'm living in the real world
Living with the lost and lonely
Living in the real world


I'm living with the lost and lonely
Living in the real world
We′re living with the lost and lonely
I′m living in the real world
And we can't get out
No, I can′t get out
No, I can't get out
No, I can′t get out
No, I can't get out

Wait a minute
Got people on an Indian reservation
Waiting for a telephone call
They take a man from the union of congress
They′ll give them back their land and their gold

And living in the real world
Living in the real world
Living in the real world

Living in the real world
Living in the real world
Living in the real world

Living in the real world
Living in the real world
Living in the real world
Living in the real world
Living in the real world
Living in the real world
Living in the real world
