In My Own Little World - Lyrics:

VS 1:
in real life - life is hard
no matter who you are
it's gonna beat you up
and leave you with the scars

in real life people suck
and there's no such thing as love
there ain't no happy end
and you know the bad guys won...uhh..

"in real life" is a song
i make my living on
but no one knows the words
so they don't sing along

in real life there's no time
and no reason to the rhyme
you can never scratch the itch
real life's a bitch and then you die

PRE:
that's why i spend every second of every day
hey - hey

CH:
in my own little world
in my own little world
all the playboys and the party-girls
in their own little worlds
in their own little worlds

VS 2:
in real life there's no god
and when you're gone you're gone
your prayers will not be heard
and no one rights the wrong

in real life children starve
and people sleep in cars
and we say we'll change the world
but we end up at the bar

PRE:
that's why i spend every second of every day
hey - hey

CH:
in my own little world
in my own little world
all the choirboys and the working girls
in their own little worlds
in my own little world
in my own little world
all the killjoys and the flower girls
in their own little worlds
in their own little worlds

VS 3:
in real life i don't know
if i can go back home
in real life i messed up
and that's why i'm alone

CH:
in my own little world
in my own little world
all the boy-toys and the pinup girls
in their own little worlds
in my own little world
in my own little world
all the cowboys and the chorus girls
in their own little worlds
in my own little world
in my own little world
all the game boys and the valley-girls
in their own little worlds
in my own little world
in my own little world
all the homeboys and the fly girls
in their own little worlds
all the beach-boys and material girls
in their own little worlds
in my own little world
in my own little world
in my own little world
in my own little world

i think @candyaunty's got the right vibe heRe! whether you like my songs or not..i don't think i've ever written a tune to "hurt"...shock..maAybe.. sometimes my lyrics are truly about me, sometimes not... at the end of the day they're just lyrics, open to interpretation and ya can't please everyone aLL the time..regardless, thAnks for all the support @swstryker

[Daburcor]

Christ, I love this guy. He's like the best bits of Jeff Lynne and George Michael in one guy!

[EvgenyShuvalov]

In 1993 I discovered Radiohead for me...after that I thought ' Good Pop (Rock) Music Over'...but in 2011 I discovered you, Wonderful Songwriter. Hi from Sakhalin.:)

[candyaunty]

Whether one is a believer or not, the point is the same: Real life hurts, so we retreat to the "safety" of our own little world.

[swstryker]

Wow! I'm amazed at the "haters" that call themselves Bleu fans. I didn't tell Bleu to change anything in his lyrics. I only mentioned MY OPINION on how it felt to me. I guarantee you I am more of a true Bleu fan than most of you haters out there. I guess people with any opinions that might be construed as negative to Bleu need not comment on his videos. A little oppresive if you ask me.

[swstryker]

You know I love you Bleu! I have for years. I was just issuing my opinion. Isn't that what the "comments" section is for?

[RR-wzcl]

Does anybody now how can I listen to Golden Handcuffs?! I can't find it ANYWHERE.
I don't even know if it's this Bleu that sand that song... I suppose it's him :(

[LookRealty]

I don't think you understand the song. "...In real life people suck, and there's no such thing as love..." think what the lyrics are actually saying and that this is the experience of others while it may not be for you. You cherry picked a line you're uncomfortable with which is why you're in your "Own Little World". Bleu has proven his point. You have the freedom of speech but do you think your quip would make Bleu think twice about a lyric that offends you? Nope! Bleu, sing on! Its awesome!

[auburnhillsriot]

i thought the line was very appropriate for the song. i say that as a fan and a songwriter.

[lusciousthecat]

different. should be popular with the young punks. but hey life sucks. at least this song doesn't.

[swstryker]

As one of your biggest fans, I have followed you for years and have all your albums including Alpacas Ogling, I just have to say I really love this song...BUT...as a Christian I don't appreciate the line of "In the real world there is no god...". I realize this is your song, but that definitely hurt. Just my opinion. I still love you and your music.

[swstryker]

Obviously you did not read my entire post as I clearly stated I am a huge fan of Bleu and have been for some time. I even mentioned that I loved this song. How does that show a lack of appreciation for Bleu's "genuine, thought provoking lyrics"? Also, why did you feel the need to criticize me and my single statement of being a Christian? Where did I "promote my personal religious delusions?" Why the hate?

[aammdj]

As a non christian...I am offended by your lack of appreciation for Mr. Mcauley's genuine, thought provoking lyrics...and your self absorbed need to promote your personal religious delusion. Just my opinion.
