Real World Lyrics By Matchbox 20

    well i wonder what it’s like to be a 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 every one
    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 yeah
    from some other planet i’d get this funky high on a yellow sun
    boy i bet my friends will all be stunned
    they’re stunned

    yeah

    straight up what did you hope to learn about here
    if i was someone else would it all fall apart
    strange where were you when we started this gig
    i wish the real world would just stop hassling me

    do you
    do you
    and me

    well 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 just what i said
    well i’d shout out an order i think we’re out of this man get me some
    boy don’t make me want to change my tone
    my tone

    yeah

    straight up what did you hope to learn about here
    if i was someone else would it all fall apart
    strange where were you when we started this gig
    i wish the real world would just stop hassling me

    please don’t change
    please don’t break
    well the only thing that seems to work at all is you
    please don’t change at all
    for me to you
    and you to me yeah

    yeah

    straight up what did you want to learn about here
    if i was someone else would this all just fall apart
    strange where were you when we started this gig
    i wish the real world would just stop hassling me

    i wish the real world would just stop hassling me
    i wish the real world would just stop hassling me

    to you and me
