(it Never Happens) In Real Life

It never happens

It never happens

In real life

In the storybook

The hero, young and brave

Fights to win his girl

And vows to be her slave

But it never happens

Never happens

Never happens in real life

Cinderella lost her slipper

At the King's ball

But she found a prince

So handsome, so tall

Billy and Mary

Go steady now

I saw Johnny take Mary to the prom

Yes, I did

Maybe I'm silly

But I know somehow

Someday, my queen will come along

Hurry to my heart

And give your love to me

Change my lonely life

And I will believe

It never happens

Never happens

It ever happens in real life

It never happens in real life

It never, it never happens in real life

No, no, no, no
