Lyrics Merrell Twins – Expectations vs Reality

Text:

When you take a picture of yourself
Thinking you look great! But in reality — YOU CAN’T GET A DATE!
You haven’t been on Facebook for more than a week
No friend requests or notifications — IT’S A SLAP ON THE CHEEK!

Waiting all week to throw down on Friday night
But plans change, people bail — THAT AIN’T RIGHT!
You order something online and you get so excited
You get the box open it and YOU FEEL SLIGHTED!

Expectations versus reality (reality)
It doesn’t turn out the way you want it to be (no, it don’t)
Expectations versus reality (what to expect?)
It doesn’t turn out the way you want it to be

You studied last night, you’re gonna ace this test
You read the wrong chapter — IT’S CARDIAC ARREST!
You walk out of school, trip and fall down
You hope for Prince Charming — YOU CAN LEAVE ME ON THE GROUND!

Expectations versus reality (this is reality)
It doesn’t turn out the way you want it to be (it doesn’t go your way)
Expectations versus reality (reality check)
It doesn’t turn out the way you want it to be

(Expectation!)
When you eat a burrito,
(Reality!)
You’re Favorite shirt’s not so neato!
(Expectations!)
The wind in your hair
(Reality!)
It makes you gag — so unfair!
(Expectation!)
Cuddle with my sweet little mutt

(Reality!)
A face full of butt!
(Expectation!)
A treat from the ice-cream man
(Reality!)
Wha-what is this?

Expectations versus reality (no, no, no it don’t)
It doesn’t turn out the way you want it to be (aww man)
Expectations versus reality (oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no) (what to expect?)
It doesn’t turn out the way you want it to be (oh no, oh no, oh…)
