Meanwhile, Back in the Real World… - Sonic Boom Six

Last night, what could it mean

In a dream I was at sea

And I was dragged off to drown from the gantry

By kids that looked just like me

As we sank to the depths of the deep

We discussed how

We could be living in utopia now

But no one else could hear a sound

Gee whizz, does this mean a streak of piss

To anyone or anybody else?

Meanwhile back in the real world

There’s a girl who lives on my street

Doesn’t have any shoes on her feet

Meanwhile back in the real world

There’s a million things that we could shout about

Woah

Tonight there’s a boy in a mask in a fist-fight

Against a skinhead in braces

The whole sight was like a retro sideshow

Although I took my part in the panto so proudly

I must have screamed «he's behind you!»

so loudly

I couldn’t quite tell friend from foe

Gee whizz, does this mean a streak of piss

To anyone or anybody else?

Meanwhile back in the real world

Saw her standing on the main road

Flagging cars in the freezing cold and

Meanwhile back in the real world

There’s a million things that we could shout about

Woah

Meanwhile back in the real world

There’s a million things that we could shout about

Woah

Hold up, I hate to mither you while you’re so dressed up

Maybe the rays from the screen got you messed up

You must be pissed off mister

If you believe the price of a shirt at a punk night

Is worth a half of your life on a website

Putting the world to rights

Meanwhile back in the real world

Someone’s lying in a bathtub

Water’s red and she won’t wake up and

Meanwhile back in the real world

There’s a million things that we could shout about

Woah

Woah

Woah
