I was a rich man, I was a thief
|
|
I was a sailor, shipwrecked on a reef
|
|
I was a coward, I was afraid
|
|
I was couragious, man I was brave
|
|
|
|
Until the oceans dry
|
|
Until the day you die
|
|
Until the stars fall out the sky
|
|
|
|
Welcome to the real world baby
|
|
Welcome to the way things are
|
|
Welcome to the real world darling
|
|
Step on for shangri-la
|
|
Welcome to the real world baby
|
|
Paradise guarantee
|
|
Welcome to the real world
|
|
Come and see what we've bequeathed
|
|
|
|
I was an angel, idolised
|
|
I was a devil in a disguise
|
|
I was a stalion, I was a mule
|
|
I was misguided, but nobody's fool
|
|
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
|
The day that I was born, daddy placed me on his knee
|
|
Said son you've got to be, a better man than me
|
|
You're inherriting the world, make your mark on history
|
|
Welcome to the real world, be what you've got to be
|
|
|
|
Welcome to the real world
|
