[Verse 1]
We're in a state of emergency
A mess of confusion
The danger is great, it's plain to see
Desperate times call for desperate solutions, hahaha
Fear of love is a fear of pain, baby
It's just an illusion
We've been wrong, we've been right
We've been up day and night like soldiers in a revolution
[Pre-Chorus]
We're like soldiers in a revolution
There's a war goin' on in here
Gotta find us a better solution
Just let it all hang out, or say somethin' real
[Chorus]
(Say somethin' real)
Hey, girl
(Say somethin' real)
Won't you say somethin' real, girl?
(Say somethin' real)
A-doo-doo, a-doo-doo, baby
(Say somethin' real)
[Verse 2]
Say the word, mamma, rescue me
With love and affection
You better send full cavalry
'Cause I'm fed up with all your rejection
Girl, your love is a sacred thing
And I like it, but I'm selfish by nature, ha
That's why I get to you, you get to me
We show out, girl, we're the talk of a nation
[Pre-Chorus]
We're soldiers in a revolution
There's a war goin' on in here, girl
Gotta find us a better solution
Just let it all hang out, yeah, or say somethin' real
[Chorus]
(Say somethin' real)
A-doo-doo, a-doo-doo, hey, yeah
(Say somethin' real)
Say somethin' real, baby
(Say somethin' real)
A-doo-doo, a-doo-doo, hey, yeah
(Say somethin' real)
[Interlude]
You know they say it's a thin line
Between love and hate (Baby, baby)
Maybe that's why
Sometimes we cool, hahaha
And sometimes we ain't
[Verse 3]
And we both have the nerve to demand satisfaction
You know I love you, girl
But each word that we serve has a cosmic reaction
And you know that we say what we want
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, we're soldiers in a revolution
There's a war goin' on in here, girl
We gotta find us a better solution
Just let it all hang out, yeah, or say somethin' real
[Outro]
(Say somethin' real) Oh
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo) Baby, baby, baby, yeah
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo) Search your words, girl, ha
(Say somethin' real)
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo) Somethin' real
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo) We're like soldiers
(Say somethin' real) In a revolution, ha
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo, doo) Without words
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo) No solution, and there's speakin' words
(Say somethin' real) And then healin' words
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo) And then feelin' words, baby, yeah
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo) Ha, say what you want, girl
(Say somethin' real) You know that I need you
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo, doo) Love is the answer, and I just wanna please you
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo) Say somethin' real, girl
(Say somethin' real)
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo) Baby, baby, yeah
