WHAT IS REAL?
Words and music: Curt Golden

You glide into the room like a big bird of prey
You got nothing in your head but you got plenty to say
Sizing up your prospects… “who will it be?”
And then, oh my God, you got your eye on me

Just what did I do to deserve this fate?
I start looking for the door but I’m a little too late
You come straight at me with that annoying smile
And if I know this is gonna take a while

IknowIknowIknowIknow I know what you’re going through
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know what you’re going through)
IknowIknowIknowIknow I know how you feel
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know how you feel)
IknowIknowIknowIknow I know ‘cause I been there too
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know ‘cause I been there too)
IknowIknowIknow and I can tell you what is real
(IknowIknowIknow)
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know what you’re going through)
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know how you feel)
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know ‘cause I been there too)
(IknowIknowIknow and I can tell you what is real)

LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME ALONE!

Forgive me what I’m thinking ‘cause I know it’s a sin
But if you don’t shut up I’m gonna do you in
You’re go on and on without taking a breath
And in the back of my mind I’m just planning your death

IknowIknowIknowIknow I know what I’m going through
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know what I’m going through)
IknowIknowIknowIknow I know how I feel
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know how I feel)
IknowIknowIknowIknow you think that you’ve been here too, but
(IknowIknowIknowIknow you think that you’ve been here too)
IknowIknowIknow that you can’t tell me what is real, no way
(IknowIknowIknow)
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know what I’m going through)
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know how I feel)
(IknowIknowIknowIknow you think that you’ve been here too)
(IknowIknowIknow that you can’t tell me what is real)

LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME ALONE!

(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know what you’re going through)
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know how you feel)
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know ‘cause I been there too)
(IknowIknowIknow and I can tell you what is real)

(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know what I’m going through)
IknowIknowIknowIknow I know what I’m going through
(IknowIknowIknowIknow I know how I feel)
IknowIknowIknowIknow I know how I feel
(IknowIknowIknowIknow you think that you’ve been here too)
IknowIknowIknowIknow you think that you’ve been here too
(IknowIknowIknow that you can’t tell me what is real
But you can’t tell me what is real

LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME ALONE!

How did you get so thick? You’re talking like a lunatic

LEAVE ME ALONE!

You wanna be my pal, I’d rather have a root canal

LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME ALONE!

LEAVE ME ALONE!
