Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes - Living In The Real World lyrics

I know there is a day without headlines Where profit won't intertwine With somebody's pain We know there is hurt behind the laughter The sting lingers after Whoa, for such a long time And one crazy fool laughing at the newsreel Watching as the citizens steal It's such a riot downtown Living in the real world Living in the real world Every day in the real world Finds a way to remind me I roam living in a wolf pack Getting my fingers snapped Whenever I reach out And if I, if I ever stumble I'll feel their warm breath Nuzzling d**h in my ear Living in the real world Living in the real world Every day in the real world Finds a way to remind me Pa**ions turned to worthless litter Dot the shores of human rivers The tide just keeps on sweeping me along Living in the real world Left so weak 'cause the love she handled every day Time slowly ate away And it's a mouth that's forever hungry And it's too late, the deck was already stacked She thought she had love down pat Till the ace jumped out of the hole She's living in the real world Living in the real world Every day in the real world Finds a way to remind me Living in the real world Living in the real world We're all living in the real world
