Seems like everywhere I look
There's another version of the same old book
And someone telling me it's new
Every song on my radio
Sounds like one I heard a long time ago
Different windows, same old view
Yeah
Uh-huh
All the clothes in the magazines
I could swear I've already seen
In my closet years ago
Hairstyles and super-malls
You've seen one well you've seen them all
Tell me something I don't know
But in a world that's mostly imitation
It's hard to recognize the real
It takes a brave heart to resist temptation
To take the easy way and reinvent the wheel
Yeah
A friend of mine finds Mr. Right
Every other Friday night
At a smoky singles bar
And she can't seem to understand
Why life don't go like she plans
She goes on wishing on a star
Yeah
But in a world that's mostly imitation
It's hard to recognize the real
It takes a brave heart to resist temptation
To take the easy way and reinvent the wheel
But in a world that's mostly imitation
It's hard to recognize the real
It takes a brave heart to resist temptation
To take the easy way and reinvent the wheel
