lyrics

You Are Not For Real
(Kerwell/Nelson/Taugner)

You can tell me what you want to see.
I might tell you where you want to be.
Hear my touch, feel the shining star.
You might laugh but that's what you are.
Oh, my baby...

You walk past with your heavy trunk,
Pulled on wheels with all of your junk.
I don't know why you have a tattered tent.
Let it be, you don't pay rent.
Oh, my baby, you are not for real.
Oh, my baby, you are not for real.

There you go, trying on your own,
Your ship lost and you think you're alone.

Who's that breathing on my telephone?
I hear you darling, coming up from home.
Nothing happens and nothing will attack,
Only your thighs wrapped around my back.
Oh, my baby, you are not for real.
Oh, my baby, you are not for real.

I can say anything that you like;
Shine your black boots, they're really out of sight.
One thing I would never, ever say,
How to make it, how to make this stay.
Oh, my baby, you are not for real.
Oh, my baby, you are not for real.

There you go, trying on your own.
Flagship is here, you're not alone.
