Come and see the real thing
Come and see the real thing
Come and see
Come and see the real thing
Come and see the real thing
Come and see

There's a meaning there
But the meaning there doesn't really mean a thing
Come and see the real thing
Come and see the real thing
Come and see

I am the real thing

Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-ma-mau-mau-ma-mau-ma-mau-mau-ma-mau-ma-mau

Trying hard to understand
But really not
You're seeing me
Trying hard to understand
But really not
You're seeing me

There's a meaning there
But the meaning there doesn't really mean a thing
Come and see the real thing
Come and see the real thing
Come and see

I am the real thing

Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-ma-mau-mau-ma-mau-ma-mau-mau-ma-mau-ma-mau

I am not seeing you
I am not seeing you
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahhhhh

Trying hard to understand
But really not
You're seeing me
Trying hard to understand
But really not
You're seeing me

There's a meaning there
But the meaning there doesn't really mean a thing
Come and see the real thing
Come and see the real thing
Come and see

I am the real thing

Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-mau
Mmm, mau-ma-mau-ma-mau-mau-ma-mau-ma-mau-mau-ma-mau-ma-mau
