Real Life

Written by Charlie Maddocks, Mikey Maddocks and Tommy Maddocks

It can take 8 years to play your best show, 

So come on out and give ‘em one more

Every Monday you hang your head low 

So you won’t fall down

I realized my best days are when I don’t know 

Where I’ve left off or where I wanna go

If you can justify keeping your head low 

Then you won’t fall down

That’s real life

The good days will make the bad ones alright 

That’s real life

Play the part to last another night

That’s real life

The good days will make the bad ones alright

That’s real life 

I know you’ve seen enough to realize 

That’s real life 

Oh, it’s over me

This warm and strange, yet comforting breeze

I like to come on out when I say so 

Unlock the latch and everybody knows

I’ll take a roller coaster on the “down low”

So I won’t fall out 

I got a pocket full of dynamite ready to blow

I practice every single morning with the radio (OHHH)

You reserve the right now to let go! 

Just don’t fall down

Now that’s real life

The good days will make the bad ones alright 

That’s real life

Play the part to last another night

That’s real life

The good days will make the bad ones alright

That’s real life 

I know you’ve seen enough to realize 

That’s real life 

Oh it’s over me

This warm and strange, yet comforting breeze 

And that’s all you’ve got to believe 

This sunny day is all I need 

All I’ll ever need

Careful now, we’re going overtime, I’m like an old man singing!

We’re on a 9-to-5. You better step in time to the old man, singing

Careful now, we’re going overtime, I’m like an old man singing!

We’re on a 9-to-5. You better step in time to the old man singing

Oh it’s over me

This warm and strange, yet comforting breeze 

And that’s all you’ve got to believe 

This sunny day is all I need 

Careful now, we’re going overtime, I’m like an old man singing!

We’re on a 9-to-5. You better step in time ‘cause you know

That’s real life

The good days will make the bad ones alright 

That’s real life

You play the part so you can last another night

That’s real life

The good days will make the bad ones alright

That’s real life 

I know you’ve seen enough to realize 

That’s real life
