Born on a Sunday, every day is Monday That is what I've heard About the real world Up on the morning Heading for the schoolyard Big boys being bullies make it so hard It's a lesson for the real world Seems so far away the real world Up to the bigger school Trying not to be fool Here I am, new shoes and cagoule Look I'm getting closer to the real world me where the girls Thinking about happiness Thinking about Tara Thinking about sorrow Thinking about Sara Sorrow and Sara are the very same word In my young life I get so hurt Will I make it in the real world? Gluing up my Airfix kit Cigarettes after gym Had a pint of Special Brew Won't do that again Train for examination, got me traction Mickey Mouse college course Looking for action Play guitar, stacking shelves Holding back in the real world Now it's Monday morning I'm still yawning Scuffing down the city street Heading for the clock on Bought a Daily Record like a real man Well, I made it to the real world But I'm not living in the real world
