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
And she pays for all his shit 'til he says thanks without a smile

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?
