Real Thing
Loverboy Lyrics

Begin the day with a friendly voice
Start your day on a positive note with someone or something that brings you comfort

A companion unobtrusive
Someone or something that is not bothersome or intrusive, but rather a calm presence that you can rely on

Plays that song that's so elusive
Hearing a song that's rare or hard to find can enhance your mood and start your day off right

And the magic music makes your morning mood
Music has a special ability to influence your emotions and can help set the tone for your day

Off on your way, hit the open road
Embark on a journey, taking advantage of the opportunities that lie ahead

There is magic at your fingers
You have the ability to control your own destiny and make things happen

For the spirit ever lingers
The essence of your drive and determination is always present and drives you forward

Undemanding contact in your happy solitude
Connection with others is important, but there is also value in being alone and finding contentment in that space

Invisible airwaves, crackle with life
Though we can't see them, the airwaves are buzzing with vibrancy and energy

Bright antennae, bristle with the energy
Technology is advancing and transforming the way we communicate and connect with each other

Emotional feedback on timeless wavelength
The exchange of emotions is a universal connection that transcends time and space

Bearing a gift beyond price, almost free
There is immense value in the simple act of connecting with others through music and shared experiences

All this machinery making modern music
Technology has revolutionized the way we create and consume music

Can still be open-hearted
Despite the advancements in technology and industry, music can still maintain its emotional and heartfelt qualities

Not so boldly charted
There is still so much unknown and uncharted territory when it comes to music and human connection

It's really just a question of your honesty
Being true to yourself and expressing honestly is key in creating meaningful and authentic connections

One likes to believe in the freedom of music
Music is often seen as a source of freedom and expression

But glittering prizes and endless compromises
The music industry can be competitive and full of compromises that can compromise the artist's true vision

Shatter the illusion of integrity, yeah
This can result in the disillusionment of musicians and fans alike

For the words of the profits
The motives behind the creation and marketing of music can sometimes be profit-driven rather than centered around the music itself

Were written on the studio walls
The music industry often functions within a capitalist system, where profit margins are prioritized over creative integrity

And concert halls
Even live performances and concerts can be influenced and shaped by the industry and economy

And echoes with the sound of salesmen
Ultimately, music is a commodity that is bought and sold, and the influence of the music industry can often be heard behind the scenes

Of salesmen, of salesmen
The industry's focus on profit can be pervasive and inescapable
