Real World Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, I wonder what it's like to be a 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
[Verse 2]
I wonder what it's like to be a superhero
I wonder where I'd go when I could fly around downtown, yeah
From some other planet, I get this funky high on a yellow sun
Boy, I bet my friends will all be stunned
They're stunned (Yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?
If I was 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
[Post-Chorus]
To you
And you
And me
[Verse 3]
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)
[Chorus]
Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?
If I was 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
[Bridge]
Please don't change, please don't break
Oh, 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)
[Chorus]
Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?
If I was 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
[Outro]
And you
And me
Girl Like That Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, you think this life would make me bolder
But I'm running scared is all
Well, I hang on everything about you
Well, you think I'd settle down, cause I'm older
But I roll with the change is all
Well, I'm same old trailer trash in new shoes
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well, she gets sad when there's nothing going on, yeah
She says it makes her feel damn worthless
[Chorus]
Well, you got to think, with a girl like that
Any love at all
It's better than nothing
Well, it's better than nothing
[Verse 2]
Well, I put my hand around your shoulder
You're saying you're scared is all
Well, I think I know too much about you
Well, you think this life would make me colder
I'd give in to the alcohol
I put my loving arms around you, child
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You knew damn well there was nothing going on, yeah
Is that what makes you feel damn worthless?
[Chorus]
Well, you got to think, with a girl like that
Any love at all
It's better than nothing
Well, it's better than nothing
Good god, well, you got to think, with a girl like that
Any love at all, no, no
It's better than nothing
Well, it's better than nothing
[Bridge 1]
Yeah, well, she drags you down and she pulls you up
She pulls you up, yeah, yeah
Says that she's sorry now but it's not enough
To pull you up, well, she's sorry
[Short Verse]
I wake up quick just like I want to
Yeah, but I stay out much too late
[Bridge 2]
Well, you think this life can get a bit unkind
But she stays down 'til the worth is gone
And pulls you up, she pulls you up, yeah
She pulls you up, and over, over
[Chorus]
You got to think, with a girl like that
Any love at all
It's better than nothing
Well, it's better than nothing
Good god
Well, you got to think, with a girl like that
Any love at all, no no
It's better than nothing
Well, it's better than nothing
[Outro]
Yeah well, you got to think, with a girl like that
Well, you got to think
With a girl like that
You've got to think with a girl like that
Well, thank her
Damn Lyrics
[Verse 1]
This old world well
Don't it make you wanna think "damn"
This cold girl well
Don't she make you wanna scream "damn"
[Pre-Chorus 1]
What's the matter girl, well, don't you think I'm good enough
This old heart had a whole lotta breakin' down
She's got all these reasons in her head
[Chorus]
Well all that time she knew if I lied
You can bet she will
She's takin' her time 'til I thought I would die
And I can't sit still
[Verse 2]
Things got turned 'round
Don't know where I started from, damn
Can't eat, can't sleep
Could have been a bigger man, damn
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Oh what's the matter girl, well, don't you think I'm bright enough
This old man had a hard time getting here
You can leave your number at the door
[Chorus]
Well all that time she knew if I lied
You can bet she will
She's takin' her time 'til I thought I would die
And I can't sit still
[Bridge]
Oh, there's nothing at all
Yeah, there's nothing at all
Well, there's nothing at all
To make her change her mind
Oh, to make her change her mind
To make her change her...
[Verse 3]
This old house's been quiet since
You went away, damn
Mixed up, fixed out
Don't forget who got you here, damn
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Oh what's the matter world, well, don't you see I opened up
This whole part's been played by another man
I pulled out the reason card instead
[Chorus]
Well all that time she knew if I lied
You can bet she will
She's takin' her time 'til I thought I would die
And I can't sit still
She says she can find
The things that make up a lie
Well I can bet she will
She says stay behind, I could stay here all night
I could stay here until
[Outro]
Until there's nothing at all
Yeah, there's nothing at all
Well, there's nothing at all
To make her change her mind
Oh, to make her change her mind
To make her change her mind
