Story behind the song
I worked with a couple of guys who inspired this. I should thank them, but they probably would wonder what I was talking about!
Lyrics
THE UNREAL MAN VERSE 1 He comes to the party has a lemonade or two Your eyes glaze over when he's talking to you You want to get away, but you don't want to be rude Too late. The Unreal Man's got his hooks into you VERSE 2 He wears the clothes his Momma buys him and thinks he looks hip And if you disagree with him, he'll trip over his lip He's like a cold water tap with a permanent drip The Unreal Man is a real bad trip CHORUS 1 He don't drink, he don't smoke, he don't swear, he don't fight He stays home and watches TV on a Saturday night He's at church every Sunday prayin' hard to the Lord But he never gets an answer - even God can get bored VERSE 3 He wears blue striped pyjamas when he gets into bed He'll talk night and day about his page on the Web If you're seen with him, you're gonna lose your street cred Hey! The Unreal Man is sociologically dead VERSE 4 Solitaire's the only game that he'll ever win If he was a fish you'd caught you'd throw him back in He can't grow a beard, 'cos he ain't got a chin The Unreal Man is the unliving end CHORUS 2 He keeps a crease in his jeans and a shine on his shoes Only time he channel hops is when he follows the news Sometimes he thinks he acts just like a real wild child Like on dressing-down Fridays he loosens his tie VERSE 5 He's into poetry and cookery, painting and chess He don't talk about his love life 'cos he'd have to confess His girlfriend is a magazine he keeps in his desk The Unreal Man is a real sad mess
