Make It All So Real (alternate) Lyrics - Steve Forbert

Take your seat in the table 

Watch the cabaret fill 

Ted came down for the singer 

He saw the name on the bill 

 

How the minutes were draggin' 

As the audience grew 

Ted was growing impatient 

As he swallowed his brew 

 

"It's time to welcome the artist" 

He heard somebody say 

Saw a face in the floodlight 

And everything was okay 

 

Singer man, do your work 

Sing your song, make it hurt 

Sing the tears, sing the pain 

Make it all so real 

 

Then the singer was singing 

All his serious songs 

And his Band wa a-playing 

And Ted was hummin' along 

 

Meanwhile back in a corner 

There was a table for two 

Where sat the singer's cute lover 

And she was drinkin' a few 

 

All snuggled up with a stranger 

Who had his hand on her thigh 

She was receivin' his message 

And gazing into his eyes 

 

Singer man, do your work 

Sing your song, make it hurt 

Sing the tears, sing the pain 

Make it all so real 

 

So the sound came a-rollin' 

Tumblin' into the night 

And all the people were ravin' 

Sayin', "Man, our singer's alright" 

 

"He's such a burnin' performer 

What a fabulous show" 

Little lover was stirrin' 

She was ready to go 

 

An' while the singer was wailing 

She got up to depart 

The crowd was stompin' and cheering 

She was breakin' his heart 

 

Singer man, do your work 

Sing your song, make it hurt 

Sing the tears, sing the pain 

Make it all so real 

 

Ted was feelin' terrific 

As the crowd filtered out 

Ravin' on 'bout the hero 

There were whistles and shouts 

 

There was a guy with his sweetheart 

Ted came walkin' on past 

He could hear what was spoken 

He could hear what she asked 

 

She said, "Don't you envy the hero?" 

An' the fella answered his girl 

"Yes, he's the ultimate singer 

He's on top of the world" 

 

Singer man, do your work 

Sing your song, make it hurt 

Sing the tears, sing the pain 

Make it all so real
