DOUG AND THE SLUGS
"Real Enough"
(Doug Bennett)

(Real enough, did-up did-up, whoa-oa)
(Real enough, bah-do-be-doo, whoa-oa)
(Real enough)
Oh I have always wondered
How tragic is your scenery
Did it save or squander
Make you lose all the things that you really think you need

The door is open, the path is clear
Why the problem with missed connections
Violence here is not my own
So treat my probe as an innocent

If it's real enough, don't hesitate
Real enough, participate
Real enough, grab it and take it away

Fortune smiled its leper's grin
And turned to cold at the touch of strangers
Armour made with third-rate tin
There's another sale for the bargain bin

If it's real enough, you'll understand
Real enough, come take my hand
Real enough, grab it and take it away
To the place where nobody watches
Smile in the face of strangers and catch up on memories
It's real to me

(Real enough, oh, oh)
(Real enough, oooh)
Oh give it to me baby
(Real enough, oh, oh)
(Real enough, oooh)
I can make it happen
(Real enough, oh, oh)
(Real enough, ooh)
Oh give it to me baby
(Real enough, oh, oh)
(Real enough, ooh)
I can make it happen

It's real enough, don't hesitate
Real enough, participate
Real enough, grab it and take it away

It's real enough, then you'll understand
Real enough, come take my hand
Real enough, grab it and take it away
To the place where nobody watches
Smile in the face of strangers and you'll know that it's
Real enough, you won't criticize
Real enough, don't cauterize
Real enough, grab it and take it away

If it's real enough there'll be no pretending
Real enough, oh that's never-ending
Real enough, grab it and take it away
Ho-oa, oh oh oh oh, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Baby I can make it happen, oh baby
Baby I can make it happen, oh baby
Baby I can make it happen, oh baby
