Real Thing

歌詞

Never had whatcha got What you are you're simply not Aren't you tired of this game And all the emptiness of your fame You can't hold tight to what you have 'cause there is nothing there to grab Now life is a shadow of a thought You never did have what you thought you got. I'm the real thing! They say I'm the real thing (oh no!) I sound like the real thing (oh no!) Singing real loud like the real thing (oh no!) Making 'em proud like the real thing (Oh, la la la) I come from the land of slaves! Let's go redskins let's go braves (la la la) You want the truth in tones, Dig this dirt and sift out the bones They said I'm the real thing (oh no!) I sound like the real thing (oh no!) Joke's on you, all askew, heard my name in timbuktu (La la la la la) Now I got it all mangled Cut it out, it's all tangled Star-spangled. Never had whatcha got... I'm the real thing! Water if water is wet Don't have a penny, I look good in debt Red white blue course through my veins Binge and purge the usa While you fret bout pants size ten Hum-a them, rum-a them, they're chosen Girlz, while you worry bout dress size six They're winning the tricks those tricks those dicks Just what is the real thing Don't call me the real thing The search for the real thing The curse of the real thing I come from the land of shame Blood and guts are all I claim, Sing-ing. (You never did get what you thought you got.) Oh my god I use my lungs (Bless my lungs! Bless my lungs!) Soft and loud any way feels good (Bless my lungs! Bless my lungs!) Oh my heat to beat my bones (Bless my lungs! Bless my lungs!) Perched atop my drumming throne (Bless my lungs! Bless my lungs!) Ate food that fed me Seed planted itself in my stomach and bled me Read some words that led me Knee aches skin leathery Put up a fight and yelled, my pride swelled My fist right through a tree, Glory glory it's good to be me! Ugly one be you who you are Ugly one be you who you are Ugly but pretty overrated It's complicated. I'm a real thing
