“The real world…”
The real world,
It ain’t nice and dandy;
It ain’t sweet like candy.
The real world
Is so very mean;
It ain’t so very keen.
There is crime everywhere
Ups the streets and in the square.
People can be killed at any moment
In the real world: anytime, or any place.
People can also disappear without a trace,
Never to be heard from again.
People cheat
And people lie;
People live on the street,
And people die,
For that is the way of the world,
The real world…
And it sucks.
It ain’t nice and dandy;
It ain’t sweet like candy.

Never to be heard from again.
People cheat

People live on the street,
And people die,
For that is the way of the world,
The real world…
And it sucks.
