The Real World - Ray Davies

作词：Ray Davies

作曲：Ray Davies

You danced and partied at the Mardi Gras

Threw back all the beads at the parade

Fake worlds and logos in the shopping mall

Where you came from

Everything seemed the same the whole world now

So you headed down south

Left your old home town

Relocated so far away from the real world

But where is the real world

One day you'll wake up and you will feel

I am alive

This is real

Your friends came down to visit from all over

To see first hand the brand new start you made

But you were overqualified for the tips

You earn in a bar

It didn't work here and it won't work there

But you tried it anyway

So head off in the car

And follow the stars

There's someone waiting not far away in the real world

Hope you get there this time

But just bear in mind

There's a lot of lost souls

Looking out for a sign for the real world

But where is the real world

Ohhh

Ohhh

One day you'll wake up and you will feel

I am alive

This is real
