Well, you know she is the mime, got a boyfriend in Japan
And he's better than his word or
at least, that's what I heard
When they fuck, she leaves her body for a while
And she pays for all his shit 'til
he says thanks without a smile

And his car is in the yard, he pretends it doesn't start
But she sees into his heart and the station ain't that far
On the corner, drops him, weeping like a child
He says thanks for the known promises
I appreciate your style

Why'd you go and make it real?
Why'd you go and make it real?
Why'd you go and make it real?
Why'd you go?

Well, you know she is the mime, got a boyfriend in Japan
And he's better than his word or
at least, that's what I heard
When they fuck, she leaves her body for a while

Ah-ah-ah
What a turn to take
Ah-ah-ah
How about you break? Yeah

Why'd you go and make it real?
Why'd you go and make it real?
Why'd you go and make it real?
Why'd you go?

Well, you know she is the mime
got a boyfriend in Japan (Why'd you go and make it real?)
And he's better than his word or, at least
that's what I heard (Why'd you go and make it real?)
When they fuck, she leaves her body for a
while (Why'd you go and make it real?)
And she pays for all his shit 'til he says
thanks without a smile (Why'd you go?)
