Got you working the nine to five
Well every day it's all you can do just to stay alive
Wasting your time away
There's got to be a better way
(Living life in the real world)
Well it's an uphill climb
(Living life in the real world)
Time after time, they knock you down
You gotta get up, you gotta live your life in the real world
With every second it slips away
It's gettin' harder to see
How you can be the best that you can be
Wasting your time away
There's got to be a better way
(Living life in the real world)
Well it's an uphill climb
(Living life in the real world)
Time after time, they knock you down
You gotta get up, you gotta live your life in the real world
Nobody ever told you it would be like this in the real world
Fame and fortune's nothing but a hit and miss
When you realize
You're living in the real world, yea yea ahh
(Living life in the real world)
Well it's an uphill climb
(Living life in the real world)
Time after time, they knock you down
You gotta get up, you gotta live your life the way you're
(Living life in the real world)
Well it's an uphill climb
(Living life in the real world)
Time after time, they knock you down
You gotta get up, you gotta live your life in the real world
Life in the real world
