Is It For Real Lyrics - Van Zant

Look back what do you see? 

Heroes, down on their knees we've deserted 

Somewhere we lost the flock 

Now just look what we've got 

Was it worth it? 

So you're a movie star 

A billion dollar deal 

With all those fancy cars 

Tell me how it feels 

With the 90's rollin' in the wind 

The 60's driftin' back again 

How do you lose your new best friends? 

Just give 'em some money 

Truth adds up to how it sounds 

How you look is all that counts 

You'll get by on all accounts 

It's not even funny 

But is it for real? 

That's good I have to admit 

The more that you're full of _____ 

They will buy it 

Drowing in politics 

Who'd vote for any of this? 

Put your head in 

Danglin' from a rope 

1 inch off the ground 

Never been so low 

It's such a long way down 

Do it wrong until it's right 

Whistle blind into the light 

The T.V. screen's become our life 

How's your reflection? 

Take this world of all its dreams 

Turn it all into what you need 

Be careful 'cause the truth is just 

An incurable infection 

But tell me what is for real? 

With the 90's rollin' in the wind 

The 60's driftin' back again 

How do you lose your new best friends? 

Just give 'em some money 

Truth adds up to how it sounds 

How you look is all that counts 

You'll get by on all accounts 

It's not even funny 

Oh it's not even funny 

No it's not even funny 

Tell me is it for real? 

What is for real?
