The real world
 
And a thousand soldiers died for just one man
A guy who'd never wanted to see a black face again
He rather wanted them dead than alive
Fear the unknown, and you will pass by

And thousands of little children went out here to play
But a girl lost the others, so she went with a tall boy
Who said he'd love her, teach her, kiss her goodnight
Well, she did learn a lot, about saying goodbye

And it's not a great world
I'm not the only one to see
Please, don't be naive
You'll regret it, just like me
And please don't complain
About your test weeks or work
'Cause it's a great thrill
Compared to the real world

And a tiny white man went out for a walk
But an old "friend" was screaming that she wanted to talk
So he killed her with his pocket knife
And left her body on the street
(It happens in the West)

And a friendly fat boy, one day he went to school
And he was talked to, beat up, was called a fool
And when he got home, got straight on the Web
Trying to escape the real world, he won't forget

And it's not a beautiful world
Perhaps I'm not the only one to see
Please, don't be naive
You'll regret it, just like me
And please don't complain
About your body or mind
'Cause it's a great thing
Compared to the real world

WAUW
deze vindt ik geweldig
de vertaling van het echt leven
zo hard en gemeen
ik vindt hem echt heeel goed

De eerste strofe gaat over racisme, of WOII? Een aantal strofes snap ik wel, sommige niet echter, maar het terugkerende refreintje vind ik niet zo, het klinkt nogal schoolengels. De boodschap is dat de wereld nogal zuigt zeg maar? Hij is nogal zwakjes, hij had veel harder kunnen zijn. Ach, ik kan er niet zoveel over zeggen geloof ik, ik voel er niet zo veel bij http://forum.scholieren.com/frown.gif.
