We all spend our lives hiding from the realities to face us. We escape into distraction. Are you ready to face your Reality?
lyrics
The dream generator keep on dreaming the dream.
[Chorus] Reality, reality, it happen to you and it happen to me.
Reality, reality it happens to us all. X2
The dream generator is the major dominator,
Influencing the way of life.
You gotta keep dreaming, dreaming a dream,
A big car or a beautiful wife.
Hey there mister average what is your dream?
Are you just another dreaming fool?
Do you gamble, do you bet, are you a millionaire yet?
Do you dream about winning the pools?
Is there a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow?
A yellow brick road showing you which way to go?
Is there a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow?
A yellow brick road showing you which way to go?
[Chorus]
If you dream about loving, then you dream about giving.
If you dream giving, then you dream about living.
If you dream about living, then you dream about lying
If you dream about lying, then you dream about crying.
If you dream about crying you dream about love!
Now reality happens to us all,
Just as pride comes before a fall.
Whether you dream or whether you don’t.
Whether you will or whether you won’t.
[Chorus]
Are you looking for a high, when you’re feeling low,
Escape into a chemical and life begins to glow.
It’s easy to say “yes”, but you’d rather answer no.
You’ve tried all of the rest, but this high is the best,
So why is there an element of doubt?
I’ll tell you now for why, cuz when you’re flying high,
You’re the one that’s really losing out!
[Chorus]
Are you a running and a hiding from the things you have seen?
Hiding your face in a video screen.
Take a look at the dream in your head if you can,
The dream in your head’s about a little man.
Are you a Mario or Sonic, Street Fighter Two,
Lost in a world where nothing is true?
. Are you a Mario or Sonic, Street Fighter Two,
Lost in a world where nothing is true?
Get real, stop dreaming a dream!
Get real, stop dreaming a dream!
Get real, stop dreaming a dream!
Get real and stop your dreaming!
Now there is the ultimate game,
With your helmet on it’s inside your brain.
But the helmet of salvation,
Is the helmet of the nation.
Virtual reality or reality that’s absolute,
The choice is yours,
put the helmet on and get to know the truth!
Get real you know what I’m saying!
Get real you know what I mean!
Get real you know what I’m praying!
Get real and stop your dreaming!
Get real you know what I’m saying!
Get real you know what I’m praying!
Get real you know what I’m saying!
Get real and stop your dreaming!
