How Does It Feel Songtext
von Roy Harper

How does it feel to be completely unreal?
How does it feel to be a voter?
And how does it feel to be a voluntary heel?

I wonder who′s it is
I see you queuing up outside Saint Peter's gates
You can feel bonafide if you ride with the tide
But it′s not real

And how does it feel to be out on your own?
How does it feel to be thinking?
And how does it feel to be out on the run?

With the mindless world at your heels
I wish I had no answers to put to you
'Cause they got me so high tied I feel
Like most of me has died
And it's real

And outside on the dragon
And inside in the cold
Mammy′s on the bandwagon
And daddy′s just getting old


And through the blood spew heavens
The roar of lust complains
Please, let me in, I have no sin
But you know I'm not real

And how does it feel to be the master′s right hand nose?
How does it feel to be lieutenant?
And how does it feel to be stood on someone's toes?

With a leech bleeding you for rent
When you say you want a bit more rank
You wanna be a big wheel
You can feel magnified if you hide in your pride
It′s not real

And how does it feel with a white flag in your fist?
How does it feel to have two faces?
And how does it feel with your god strapped to your wrist?

And him leading you such a chase
You got one set of words for him
And you got another for me
You're gonna feel mystified when you′re identified
Don't worry, kid, it's not real


And outside on the dragon
And inside in the cold
Mammy′s on the bandwagon
Daddy′s just getting old

And through the blood spew heavens
The roar of lust complains
Please, let me in, I have no sin
But you know I'm not real

And through the blood spew heavens
The roar of lust complains
Please let me in, I have no sin
But I′m not real

I'm not real
Not real
Not real
