Music and lyrics by Alanis, Leslie, David Howe & Serge Cote



We play the game with determination

We don't give a damn 'bout our reputation baby

It's not a game, it's a revelation

Step inside the real world

The real world...yeahyeahyeah... The real world...yeah...



It's been every day now, and it just won't go away now...no

Life is so intense now, not much common sense now yeah

And late in the night I turn out my light yeah

A song in my head, and it says "STEP INSIDE THE REAL WORLD"



Chorus:

We play the game with determination

We don't give a damn 'bout our reputation baby

It's not a game, it's a revelation

Just another day in the real world...yeah, the real world



I can make decisions with no one else believin' me

I just look inside me 'cause I've got my own voice to guide me

It came in a dream, a light so extreme yeah

A voice in my head, and it says "STEP INSIDE THE REAL WORLD"



Repeat Chorus



Chorus:

Ya gotta step inside the real world STEP-IN-SIDE-THE-REAL-WORLD

I woke from the dream, I know what it means

A voice in my head, and it says "YOU'RE HERE INSIDE THE REAL WORLD"



Repeat Chorus (x2)
