Matchbox 20 - Real World Lyrics
Official




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 and see them when I'm

Done, when I'm done



I wonder what it's like to be a superhero

I wonder where I'd go if I could fly around downtown, yeah

From some other planet, I'd get this funky high on a yellow sun

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 hassling me



Do you?

Do you?

And 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



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 hassling 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 hassling me

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me

A you, and me
