[Verse 1]
I don’t mind
Letting you down easy but just give it time
If it don’t hurt now well just wait, just wait a while
You’re not the big fish in the pond no more
You are what they're feeding on

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So what are you gonna do
When the world don't orbit around you

[Chorus]
Ain’t it fun
Livin’ in the real world
Ain’t it good
Bein’ all alone

[Verse 2]
Where you're from
You might be the one who’s running things
Well you could ring anybody's bell and get want you want
You see it’s easy to ignore trouble
When you’re living in a bubble

[Pre-Chorus 2]
So what are you gonna do
When the world don’t orbit around you (Ooh-ooh-mm-ah-ah-ah)
So what are you gonna do
When nobody wants to fool with you (Oh-oh-oh, ah-ah-ah)
[Chorus]
Ain’t it fun
Livin’ in the real world
Ain’t it good
Bein’ all alone
Ain’t it good to be on your own
Ain’t it fun, you can't count on no one
Ain’t it good to be on your own
Ain’t it fun, you can't count on no one
Ain’t it fun
Livin’ in the real world

[Bridge]
Don’t go crying to your mama
‘Cause you’re on your own in the real world
Don’t go crying to your mama
‘Cause you’re on your own in the real world
Don’t go crying to your mama
‘Cause you’re on your own in the real world
Don’t go crying to your mama
‘Cause you’re on your own in the real world

[Refrain]
Ain’t it fun, ain’t it fun
Baby now you’re one of us
Ain’t it fun, ain’t it fun, ain’t it fun
[Chorus]
Ain’t it fun
Livin’ in the real world
Ain’t it good (Ain’t it go-oo-ood)
Bein’ all alone

[Outro]
Don’t go crying to your mama (Not to your motha)
‘Cause you’re on your own in the real world (Don’t go crying)
Don’t go crying to your mama (To your mama)
‘Cause you’re on your own in the real world
Don’t go crying to your mama
‘Cause you’re on your own in the real world (This is the real world)
Don’t go crying to your mama (Don’t go crying)
‘Cause you’re on your own in the real world
