You can learn it when you're awake
You can practice in a dream
When you conquer every mistake
You can wipe the slate clean
You can marry in the kingdom
You can dance around the queen
But when the shit comes flying
You're gonna have to come clean
Oh but nothing prepares you
You know nothing prepares you
You know nothing prepares you
For the real thing
For the real thing
For the real thing
You got your fortified village
You got your A-team
But when you pull down heaven
You're gonna see what I mean
Oh but nothing prepares you
You know nothing prepares you
You know nothing prepares you
For the real thing
For the real thing
For the real thing
For the real thing
For the real thing
For the real thing
For the real thing
For the real thing
