Real Life

'Cause baby this is real life

You wanna get your mind on your occupation

The moment's got to feel right

'Cause honey, if it don't then get out the station

'Cause baby this is real life

You wanna get your mind on your occupation

The moment's got to feel right

'Cause honey, if it don't then get out the station

You gotta get it, you gotta get it

And pretty soon, you'll find the figures fit

You gotta get it, you gotta get it

And find your groove before the others trip

It started with a look

And pretty soon it was a valentine

And when the whole Earth shook

I passed him over to a friend of mine

He started as a squeeze

But pretty soon he was a tourniquet

I'll take my life back, please

I liked it better with the time to play

(Show us your look)

I think I'm fallin'

(Show us your look)

I'm not done crawlin'

(Show us that look)

Or I'll keep stallin' you

I was thinkin' of nights without you

Damn right, I'll see it through

And I was thinkin' of life without me

I know, I know it's just insanity

'Cause baby this is real life

You wanna get your mind on your occupation

The moment's got to feel right

'Cause honey, if it don't then get out the station

'Cause baby this is real life

You wanna get your mind on your occupation

The moment's got to feel right

'Cause honey, if it don't then get out the station

Dance while your dollar goin' up, up, up

And catch your lucky number while it's rising, rising

Chance comes a calling, goin' knock, knock, knock

It's better to be living than surviving

It started with a kiss

And pretty soon it was a compromise

But with a kung fu twist

I pulled his focus back in on my mind

It started with a drink

That pretty soon became a waterfall

But then my face turned pink

'Cause I believed him when he said he'd call

(Show us your look)

I think I'm fallin'

(Show us your look)

I'm not done crawlin'

(Show us that look)

Or I'll keep stallin' you

I was thinkin' of nights without you

Damn right, I'll see it through

And I was thinkin' of life without me

I know, I know it's just insanity

'Cause, baby, this is real life

You wanna get your mind on your occupation

The moment's got to feel right

'Cause, honey, if it don't then get out the station

'Cause, baby, this is real life

You wanna get your mind on your occupation

The moment's got to feel right

'Cause, honey, if it don't then get out the station

Dance while your dollar goin' up, up, up

And catch your lucky number while it's rising, rising

Chance comes a calling, goin' knock, knock, knock

It's better to be living than surviving, vibing

Dance while your dollar goin' up, up, up

And catch your lucky number while it's rising, rising

Chance comes a calling, goin' knock, knock, knock

It's better to be living than surviving, vibing

'Cause baby this is real life
