Getting Surreal - The Fratellis

Everybody knows when tell me again

Fatten up the pig and baby let’s pretend

That I could see the joke

At the beginning or the end

Let me know the secret honey

Then I’ll be your best friend

Alakazam, Kalakazoo, Salaam

Meet me in the jungle

Where they never give a damn

If your clothes don’t fit

Or if your marriage is a sham

They never weigh a woman

By the kilo or the gram

If you go to make it baby make it real

Get up of your knees and tell me how do you feel?

Nothing untrue can ever be revealed

Cover my eyes this is getting surreal

Written in the stars is a great big lie

That you’ll never get to see

Until the minute that you die

And by the time you get to heaven

You’re a whole another guy

It’s maybe just as well

That you never had a third eye

Little pig little pig lock your door

Take the gun from the wall

And then even up the score

I don’t even know who the sun shines for

And I don’t believe what I believe any more

If you got to make it baby make it real

Get up off your knees and tell me how do you feel?

Nothing untrue can ever be revealed

Cover my eyes this is getting surreal

Hollywood death smile flash me a grin

Laughing gas don’t cut it when you’re rotten within

Nothing untrue can ever be revealed

Cover my eyes this is getting surreal

Well it’s hotdog logic in a grapefruit time

Flutter your eyelids and honey you’ll be fine

Throw me your sins

And I’ll keep them with mine

You got a headful of stone

And that’s something divine

Get a little head rush, swallow a fly

Cut off your memories

And hang them out to dry

It was a beautiful noise

But now it’s tumbling by

I was never here there was no you and I

If you got to make it baby make it real

Get up off your knees and tell me how do you feel?

Nothing untrue can ever be revealed

Cover my eyes this is getting surreal

Hollywood death smile flash me a grin

Laughing gas don’t cut it when you’re rotten within

Nothing untrue can ever be revealed

Cover my eyes this is getting surreal
