[01:41.630]Cause what's real is something that the eyes can't see
[01:44.130]That the hands can’t touch,
[01:46.190]that them broads can’t be, and that’s you
[01:48.620]Never let 'em see you frown
[01:49.750]And if you need a friend to pick you up, I’ll be around
[01:52.990]And we can ride with the windows down, the music loud
