The Fratellis – Getting Surreal lyrics

[Verse 1]
Everybody knows when tell me again
Fatten up the pig and baby let's pretend
That I could see the joke
At the beginning or the end
Let me know the secret honey
Then I'll be your best friend
Alakazam, Kalakazoo, Salaam
Meet me in the jungle
Where they never give a damn
If your clothes don't fit
Or if your marriage is a sham
They never weigh a woman
By the kilo or the gram

[Chorus 1]
If you go to make it baby make it real
Get up of your knees and tell me how do you feel?
Nothing untrue can ever be revealed
Cover my eyes this is getting surreal

[Verse 2]
Written in the stars is a great big lie
That you'll never get to see
Until the minute that you die
And by the time you get to heaven
Your a whole another guy
It's maybe just as well
That you never had a third eye
Little pig little pig lock your door
Take the gun from the wall
And then even up the score
I don't even know who the sun shines for
And I don't believe what I believe any more

[Chorus 2]
If you got to make it baby make it real
Get up off your knees and tell me how do you feel?
Nothing untrue can ever be revealed
Cover my eyes this is getting surreal
Hollywood death smile flash me a grin
Laughing gas don't cut it when you're rotten within
Nothing untrue can ever be revealed
Cover my eyes this is getting surreal

[Verse 3]
Well it's hotdog logic in a grapefruit time
Flutter your eyelids and honey you'll be fine
Throw me your sins
And I'll keep them with mine
You got a headful of stone
And that's something divine
Get a little head rush, swallow a fly
Cut off your memories
And hang them out to dry
It was a beautiful noise
But now it's tumbling by
I was never here there was no you and I

[Outro]
If you got to make it baby make it real
Get up off your knees and tell me how do you feel?
Nothing untrue can ever be revealed
Cover my eyes this is getting surreal
Hollywood death smile flash me a grin
Laughing gas don't cut it when you're rotten within
Nothing untrue can ever be revealed
Cover my eyes this is getting surreal
