When is Real, Real?

[Chorus]
When is real, real?
When is real, real?
When is real, real?
Somebody won't you tell me how you feel

[Verse 1]
Was it real when you came into the world and saw the light?
Is it real when you know yourself and the world you live in?
Or has this place we live in completely taken all your sight?
Tell me

[Chorus]
When is real, real?
When is real, real?
When is real, real?
Somebody won't you tell me how you feel

[Verse 2]
Was it real when you took your sister by the hand and used her? (Mmm, mmm, mmm)
Was it real when you called your brother a friend and abused him?
Tell me

[Chorus]
When is real, real?
When is real, real?
When is real, real?
Somebody won't you tell me how you feel

[Verse 3]
Maybe real is something inside your mind that's too gritty
Maybe real is something that you are afraid to see
Maybe real is giving up yourself with no regret
Maybe real is a moment sho'nuff that you can't forget (Ooh)
Now tell me, do you feel real, or do you really know real?

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
When is real, real? (Woo)
When is real, real? (Tell me)
When is real, real?
Somebody won't you tell me how you feel
When is real, real?
When is real, real?
When is real, real?
Somebody won't you tell me how you feel

[Outro]
Now tell me, do you feel real, or do you really know real? (Do you know?)
Tell me, do you feel real, or do you really know real? (Can you feel it?)
Tell me, do you feel real, or do you really know real?
Tell me, do you feel real, or do you really know real?
