[Verse 1]

Crazy the things that can turn a blind eye

Out on the street, all the people walk by

Nobody cares who gets pushed aside

As long as it's not gonna fuck with their own lives

[Verse 2]

Yeah, we're all a little guilty 'bout the vanity

Who we are and who we can't afford to be

Trying so hard to get the attention

Who's looking now is a burning question

[Chorus]

Somebody special has a van-sticker family

Somebody special took a trip last year

Somebody special drives a Maserati

Everyone's just trying to be somebody

Everyone's just trying to be somebody

[Verse 3]

Yeah, we're all a little stunned by reality

What it is and what it's never going to be

Living every day redundantly

Sounds like textbook insanity

[Chorus]

Somebody special has a van-sticker family

Somebody special took a trip last year

Somebody special drives a Maserati

Everyone's just trying to be somebody

Somebody special is a gangster wannabe

Somebody special turned a trick last year

Somebody special loves the paparazzi

Everyone's just trying to be somebody

[Bridge]

Is this the new real?

(Is this the new real?)

Is this the new real?

(Is this the new real?)

Where nobody cares about each other or how they feel

Is this the new real?

(Is this the new real?)

Where nobody cares about each other or how they feel

[Chorus]

Somebody special has a van-sticker family

Somebody special took a trip last year

Somebody special drives a Maserati

Everyone's just trying to be somebody

Somebody special is a gangster wannabe

Somebody special just lives in fear

Somebody special is in love with Molly

Everyone's just trying to be somebody

[Outro]

Is this the new real?

(Is this the new real?)

Is this the new real?

(Is this the new real?)

Is this the new real?
