Real Tough Love

It\'s not nice and easy like a nickel\'s worth of gum

It\'s not bright and breezy like you\'re basking in the sun

But you\'re not gonna see me try to lie to anyone

It\'s Real

It\'s Tough

It\'s Love

It\'s not neat and tidy like a picnic in the park

It\'s not a week of fridays and fumbling in the dark

But you\'re not gonna find me tryin\' to light another spark...

Some might say it\'ll pass away

When pushin\' comes to shove

I\'ll bite the hand, you\'ll bruise the heel

But right or wrong, you\'ve gotta feel

It\'s Real Tough Love
