Real World '09 Lyrics

Hey yeah, welcome to the real world
Nobody told you it was gonna be hard
You said Hey yeah I can't believe it, I bearly started now I'm falling apart,
and it's hard

Standing at the crossroads
but having all the answers, never helped me out no
all the better Boom shake, helps me awake
I need some coffee and maybe a shave
And it's a pretty bad way to start my today
Turn on the radio and what does he say?
He says, Hey yeah, welcome to the real world
Nobody told you it was gonna be hard
You said Hey yeah I can't believe it, I bearly started now I'm falling apart,
and the stars

they were shining through the window
Yeah, feel a little moon glow
Kinda like a rainbow

Then boom shake, now I'm awake
I think it's over but it's everyday
And it's a pretty fine mess I'm starting to make
I couldn't tell you I was never afraid
sayin' Hey yeah, welcome to the real world
Nobody told you it was gonna be hard
You said Hey yeah I can't believe it, I bearly started now I'm falling apart
Hey yeah, welcome to the real world
Nobody told you it was gonna be hard
You said Hey yeah I can't believe it, I bearly started now I'm falling apart

(SOLO)

Hey yeah, welcome to the real world
Nobody told you it was gonna be hard
You said Hey yeah I can't believe it, I bearly started now I'm falling apart
Hey yeah, welcome to the real world
Nobody told you it was gonna be hard
You said Hey yeah I can't believe it, I bearly started now I'm falling apart
ahh, welcome to the real world
ahh, welcome to the real world
ahh welcome to the real world

I can't believe nobody has commented on this song, it is one of my favourites from the new album.

it's supposed to be just like a feel good jam. life's hard, but we all gotta do it, that's just how things work

The lyric given in the cradlesong cd is "Then a boom shake" not 'all the better'.

I love MB20 and Rob. But when I heard this song, I couldn't help but feeling a bit dissapointed. I assumed that it was somehow related to the brilliant original MB20's "Real World", but this one is such a plain song!. It seems to me that the young, fresh and hungry Rob carried much more passion and drive than what is being shown by this simple, forgettable song. I guess I didn't like he used the same title for naming such different pieces of his work.
