lyrics

George Bush wasn’t behind Nine-Eleven.
The moon landing happened on the moon.
Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK
And the Rapture won’t be coming soon.

President Obama wasn’t born in Kenya.
The world wasn’t made in seven days.
A chain letter won’t get you a million bucks.
William Shakespeare wrote Shakespeare’s plays.

Wake up to the real world
Wake up to the real world
Forget your secret-deal world
We need you in the real, real
(real, real)
real, real world

Autism isn’t caused by vaccinations
No one just decides to be gay
You can’t say global warming’s all a hoax
’Cause it happens to be cold one day

People are descended from early primates.
UFOs don't come from outer space
The Feds won’t be confiscating all of your guns
And the Holocaust really took place.

Wake up to the real world
Wake up to the real world
Forget your secret-deal world
We need you in the real, real
(real, real)
real, real world

Sure there’s lots
Of schemes and plots
And questions that still nag
But grasp at straws
To find the cause,
You raise your own false flag

AIDS wasn’t something made to kill off black folks
And chemtrails aren’t poisoning the skies.
But the one thing stopping us from saving the world
Is we keep falling for those lies

Here’s the real world
Wake up to the real world
Forget your secret-deal world
We need in the real world

Wake up to the real world
Wake up to the real world
Our not-too-late-to-heal world
We need you in the real, real
(real, real)
real, real
(real, real)
world
