"A fantasy is better in real life..." lyric question

A fantasy is better in real life of course
Unless of course
The name of that stallion is me


I don't get the 2nd part of this lyric --- a fantasy is better in real life because its a 'dream come true' --- so why would that change 'if the stallion is me' ???

It says a fantasy is better THAN real life, unless of course unless that name of the Stallion is me. The lyric says fantasy is better than real life except when it comes to her.

Its from Brias Album, I think its from'Something you already know'

I was wondering about the lyric too, it doesn't read right,

Like she's saying its NOT better with her in reality.

my guess is that the lyrics got edited along the way and that no-one identified that it sounded wrong

i guess i have to agree that the lyrics must have been printed wrong.... "a fantasy is better than real life..." it has to be that.....

The strangest part is that she is a stallion - wich is a male horse...wonder if the lyrics was written for Prince to sing originally? Or if they both has very little knowledge about horses in general...lol Well, I guess it simply means that she's as "wild as a stallion" to ride (in bed) wink A really great song, whatever.smile
