If I Fell
M.P.B. Lyrics

If I wuz you
Imagine being in someone else's shoes

So surreal so surreal So surreal that it can't be real I'm just so afraid of banana peels A wandering eye does not have sex appeal I'm 99 and a half light years away And they expect me to be okay They see me in some other light But who told them that I wasn't alright? Get with it said the prince to the be Doncha realize that they can't see That's cool I'm in a tranquil state But I can't see why they don't calculate Prince how come your eyes look blue? If only ya had my eyes to look through Mellowin out is what ya need to do Huh only if I wuz you
Feeling disconnected from reality, concerned about trivial matters, feeling misunderstood by others who don't see who you really are, recognizing the limitations of other people's perspectives, being in a peaceful state but not understanding why others can't see things the way you do

I guess I'm supposed to go crazy is that what it is Tryin to pass this quiz Mirror mirror what'cha got for me? Since I'm you and you're just so me I know they've lost themselves instead I know that destiny's face is red I can see my rainbow's real sweet But for that quick quiz I gotta crib sheet So what's the matter you? why do ya look sad? Man this world doesn't look so bad What's the deal with the heal of a shoe Why's an ankle such a red kangaroo It all depends on the way I think A watcher's point of view don'tcha think There'd be a time where I wouldn't have a clue But only if I wuz you
Feeling pressure to conform to societal expectations, questioning one's own identity and place in the world, realizing that others have lost sight of themselves, recognizing the subjective nature of reality and the importance of perspective, feeling the need for a crib sheet to navigate life's challenges, and realizing that obstacles are often dependent on one's state of mind

Poor, poor aristocrat Shaken down by a pussycat Thought he was a strong believer in the now He thought he was up so he got shook down Deja vu, even I myself That's why educated guesses I think might help But a flat out reading, I don't see how And things we gotta deal with right now Like the fact that my complexion may offend you Environment's protection may contend you There's millions in the quest for synthetic dreams It's now extreme and pullin' at the seams I don't wait so it don't bother me But please forgive me if I act rude Save the bass for another part of me But only if I wuz you
Recognizing the vulnerability of even those in positions of power, questioning the validity of living solely in the present moment, trusting one's intuition but not entirely dismissing external input, acknowledging the complexity of societal issues, feeling overwhelmed by the world's problems but not choosing to wait idly by, and recognizing the importance of boundaries and self-expression

If I wuz you I think I'd find my way into the stars If I wuz you I think I'd let me out of my jar If I wuz you I don't think that I could ever be real If I wuz you I think it'd vary on the way that I feel If I wuz you
Speculating on the potential paths one could take if they occupied someone else's place in the world, recognizing the need for liberation and self-discovery, questioning the authenticity of one's identity and existence, and acknowledging the influence of emotions and perspectives on one's experiences
