(Verse)
I don't mind, let me down easy but just give me time
If it don't hurt now but just wait, just wait a while

You're not the big fish in the pond no more
You were worth defeating on


(Pre-Chorus)
So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you?

So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you?


(Chorus)
Ain't it fun?
Living in the real world

Ain't it good?
Being all alone


(Verse)
Where you from? You might be the one who's running things
Well you could ring anybody's bell to get what you want

You see it's easy to ignore trouble
When you're living in your bubble


(Pre-Chorus)
So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you?

So what are you gonna do
When nobody wants to fool with you?


(Chorus)
Ain't it fun?
Living in the real world

Ain't it good?
Being all alone


Ain't it good to be on your own?
Ain't it fun you can't count on no one?
Ain't it good to be on your own?

Ain't it fun you can't count on no one?
Ain't it fun?
Living in the real world


(Bridge x2)
Don't go crying to your mother

'Cause you're on your own in the real world
Don't go crying to your mother
'Cause you're on your own in the real world


Ain't it fun? Ain't it fun? Baby, now you're one of us
Ain't it fun? Ain't it fun? Ain't it fun?


(Chorus)
Ain't it fun?

Living in the real world
Ain't it good?
Being all alone


(Chorus)
Ain't it fun?

Living in the real world ('Cause the world don't open up)
Ain't it good?
Being all alone


Don't go crying to your mother (run to your mother)
'Cause you're on your own in the real world (Don't go crying)

Don't go crying to your mother (to your mother)
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
Don't go crying to your mother

'Cause you're on your own in the real world (this is the real world)
Don't go crying to your mother
'Cause you're on your own in the real world (this is the real world, this is the real world)

Don't go crying to your mother
'Cause you're on your own in the real world
Don't go crying to your mother

'Cause you're on your own in the real world
Don't go crying (don't you go, don't you go crying)
Don't go crying (you're on your own)
Don't go crying (Don't go crying to your mother)
Don't go crying
