Reality reality reality is always

You tattoes yourself like a piece of art
You've already broken your mother's heart
When I was your age, working my ass off
Your generation's soft

Reality is always such a drag
For barely blooming eighteens
The barely blooming eighteen
Wants to know
What's keeping her from searching

You cannot pierce that
And you're dressed too tight
Got a lot to learn about wrong and right
So dye your hair, dad's gonna wash it out
Come on wash your mouth

Reality is always such a drag
For barely blooming eighteens
The barely blooming eighteen
Wants to know
What's hiding in the shadows

Reality, reality, reality is always
Reality, reality, reality is always
Reality, reality, reality is always
Reality, reality, reality

Reality is always such a drag
For barely blooming eighteens
The barely blooming eighteen
Wants to know
What's keeping her from searching
Oh oh oh oh

You cannot pierce that
And you're dressed too tight
Got a lot to learn about wrong and right
So dye your hair, dad's gonna wash it out

Come on wash your mouth

Reality is always such a drag
For barely blooming eighteens
The barely blooming eighteen
Wants to know
What's keeping her from searching

Reality is always such a drag
For barely blooming eighteens
The barely blooming eighteen
Wants to know
What's hiding in the shadows
Oh oh oh oh
