Real Life (Is Stranger Than Fiction)
Richard Clapton
Who would have ever thought that, she'd end up on Bayswater Road,
With no money in her pockets, she's got nowhere to go,
And the crims get kind of restless, if she don't pay up in time,
There are some girls who'd do anything, just to score a couple of lines
So much garbage in the alleyway, it gets piled up and it stinks,
But it's a real good place to throw up in, after one or two stiff drinks
Man you wouldn't even spit on, the earnings of these pimps,
Who half the time turn out to be just another pack of wimps
But you can make it through the Murder Mile,
And find redemption on the other side
So many things need to get reconciled,
But don't give up until you're satisfied,
(Because) real life is stranger than fiction
Real life is stranger than fiction
Outside of the Sebel Townhouse, in Dennis' limousine,
He doesn't know which way to go, he's as drunk as he's ever been,
He can see her through the fountain, nodding off and she's starting to itch,
But from his suite up on the fourteenth floor, she is just another loser bitch
Now you can make it through the Murder Mile,
And find redemption on the other side,
So many things need to get reconciled
But don't give up until you're satisfied,
Real life is stranger than fiction
Real life is stranger than fiction
