lirik lagu brian dunne - fake version of the real thing
oh christ, do you hear the cries
of the sore winners up on top of the hill there’s no prize that’ll satisfy
there’s no prize that’ll satisfy
the bourgeois citizens of millionairesville
they used to say this was a place so famous
that its written lore was nothing short of sacrosanct show up late, now they’re sweeping the place
we get the fake version of the real thing
oh my, how the strong survive!
born with a sword made of bethlehem steel
let me stress with a capital s
that everyone is fraught from the weight of this wheel
they used to say you’d make a great politician you could work a whole room on one stiff drink sell em the truth with a fib or two
call it the fake version of the real thing
it’s written at the subway stops and third wave coffee shops downtown billboard spots
but you can’t make it stop
love sold at double the cost
and you can’t beat the liquor laws they got you with a contract clause ah the war that was already lost
oh man, thanks for letting me in
i am chuffed to be invited, what a luxury a middle finger to the powers that linger
a middle finger to the powers that linger just to show that i know who i used to be
i used to say that if i made it inside
i would shoot out the lights, take a couple of swings but this is nice, baby this is alright
i may stay here forever, and at least for tonight
yeah maybe i’m not really quite what you think
just the fake version of the real thing
fake version of the real thing
tie it up with a neat little string
call it the fake version of the real thing
