Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't mind
Letting you down easy, but just give it time
If it don't hurt now, well, just wait, just wait a while
You're not the big fish in the pond no more
You are what they're feeding on
[PreChorus]
So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you?
So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you?
[Chorus]
Ain't it fun
Living in the real world?
Ain't it good
Being all alone?
[Verse 2]
Where you're from?
You might be the one who's running things
Well, you can ring anybody's bell and get what you want
See, it's easy to ignore trouble
When you're living in a bubble
[PreChorus]
So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you?
So what are you gonna do
When nobody wants to fool with you?
[Chorus]
Ain't it fun
Living in the real world?
Ain't it good
Being all alone?
[Bridge]
Ain't it good to be on your own?
Ain't it fun you can't count on no one?
Ain't it good to be on your own?
Ain't it fun you can't count on no one?
Ain't it fun
Living in the real world?
[Verse 3]
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
[Verse 4]
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
[Chorus]
Ain't it fun? Ain't it fun?
Baby, now you're one of us
Ain't it fun? Ain't it fun?
Ain't it fun?
[Chorus]
Ain't it fun
Living in the real world?
Ain't it good? Ain't it good
Being all alone?
[Chorus]
Ain't it fun
Living in the real world?
'Cause the world don't orbit around you
Ain't it good? Ain't it good
Being all alone?
[Verse 5]
Don't go crying to your mama
Not to your mama
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
Don't go crying
Don't go crying to your mama
To your mama
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
[Verse 6]
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
This is the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
This is the real world
[Verse 7]
Don't go crying to your mama
This is the real world
Don't go crying
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
Don't go crying to your mama
No, don't you cry to your mama, no
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
'Cause you on your own
[Outro]
Don't go crying
Don't you go, don't you go crying
Don't go crying
You're on your own
Don't go crying
Don't go crying to your mama
Don't go crying
Don't you cry
