Real World

Well, I wonder what it's like
To be the rainmaker
I wonder what it's like
To know that I made the rain

I'd store it in boxes
With little yellow tags on every one
And you can come see them when I'm done
When I'm done

I wonder what it's like
To be a super hero
I wonder where I'd go
If I could fly around downtown, yeah

From some other planet
I get this funky high on yellow sun
And, boy, I bet my friends will all be stunned
They're stunned

Yeah yeah, straight up
What did you hope to learn about here
If I were someone else
Would this all fall apart

Strange
Where were you when we started this gig
I wish the real world
Would just stop hasslin' me

And you
To you
Yeah me

Well, I wonder what it's like
To be the head honcho
I wonder what I'd do
If they all did just what I said (just what I said)

Well, I'd shout out an order
I think we're out of this man get me some
Boy don't make me wanna change my tone
My tone

Yeah yeah, straight up
What did you hope to learn about here
If I were someone else
Would this all fall apart

Strange
Where were you when we started this gig
I wish the real world
Would just stop hasslin' me

Please don't change
Please don't break
Well, the only thing
That seems to work at all is you

Please don't change
At all from me
To you
And you
To me, yeah yeah

Yeah yeah, straight up
What did you hope to learn about here
If I were someone else
Would this all just fall apart

Strange
Where were you when we started this gig
I wish the real world
Would just stop hasslin' me

I wish the real world
Would just stop hasslin' me
I wish the real world
Would just stop hasslin' me

And you
And me
