Something Real

Lyrics

Something Real

She always gets me wrong He always gets me right She wants something real He wants something right 'Cause she always gets me wrong He always gets me right and I don't know why

He can't take a joke She can't take her life He likes to get choked She forgets the time It's generational And generations die, so why can't mine?

He always gets me wrong She always gets me right He wants something real She forgets the time 'Cause he always gets me wrong She always gets me right and I don't know why
