*** LYRICS ***
I wanna get real high, watch the sunset
I wanna be your man (don’t forget)
I wanna live my life like a movie
I wanna ride a motorbike in New Orleans
I’ll pick you up from work on a Tuesday
You worked a long shift, let’s go get a drink babe
We’ll go to the dive bar on magazine street
I’ll let you call me names ‘cause I know you got a mean streak
Oh god, good god.
This is real life!
This is your real life!
This is real life!
I’ll walk the dog in a pair of short shorts
Speed around the block, saying “hi!” to the neighbourhood
“Hey there neighbour, I baked you something nice!
Wanna try? It’s pumpkin pie! I think you should try it!”
I wanna be a passenger princess
Drive me around, I’ll wear a crown and a pink dress
It’s my birthday party and you’re all invited
We’ll each have a piece of cake and play sleeping lions
And maybe when we’re there all lying on the ground
I’ll cut off my hair and I’ll scream and I’ll pound ‘cause
It’s my birthday party and I’ll cry if I want to
It’s my fucking birthday party!

Is this real life? Is this just fantasy?
Is this real life? Is this just fantasy?
Is this real life? Is this just fantasy?
Is this real life getting away from me?
This is real life!
This is your real life!
This is your real life!
This is real life!
This is your real life!
This is your real life!
A really real life
This is your real life!
