Living In The Real World

Blondie · The Platinum Collection [1994]

Every day you've go to wake up

Disappear behind your makeup

Take away your calendar watch

And you can't keep track until your heart attack



Hey, I'm living in a magazine, page to page in my submarine

Hey now, Cindy, you can't get to me

Need an elevator? Hey, I'll see you later



Cause I'm not living in the real world

I'm not living in the real world

I'm not living in the real world

No more, no more, yeah



I can be whatever I want to

I talk to me, I even agree

Every day's a holiday

You can look through the glass and take a photograph



You will never ever walk on the moon, leave your body and float through the room

You could never conquer me

Cause I'm not here and you're not there, yeah



And I'm not living in the real world

I'm not living in the real world

I'm not living in the real world

No more, no more, yeah

Didn't I ever tell you I was gone?

Didn't I ever tell you I was gone? Bye bye



I can do anything at all

I'm invisible and I'm twenty feet tall

Pull the plug on your digital clock

And it all goes dark and the bodies stop



Hey, I'm living in a magazine, page to page in my teenage dream

Hey, now, Mary, you can't follow me

Without a satellite - I'm on a power flight



Cause I'm not living in the real world

I'm not living in the real world

I'm not living in the real world

No more, no more

I'm not living in the real world

I'm not living in the real world

I'm not living in the real world

No more, no more, no more
