The Real World

Matchbox Twenty

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 everyone

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

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

boy I bet my friends will all be....stunned.......they're stunned

yeah



(chorus)

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...and you....and

you...and me



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

I'd shout out an order, I think we're out of this, man, get me some

And boy don't make me want to change my.....tone.....my tone....

yeah



(chorus)



please don't change, please don't break

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

(chorus)
