Seventeen dreams for you They'll all be gone tomorrow Pull me a face And say something witchy It's time to get out of your bed
Some people talk like babies Others say nothin' at all Give me a slug From the wonderful jug It's time to get out of your head
Well we're travelin' light Gonna speed through the night Only now you recall It means nothing at all You were stuck in a dream And you wanted to scream But it's nothing at all No it's nothin'
Don't wanna go to class Said they could kiss you goodbye You've got no choise Feel like christopher boyce Time to get out of your bed
Words you don't understand Are all makin' sense tonight It's hard to think straight When you're feelin' so great Only wanna get out of your head
Well we're travelin' light Gonna speed through the night Only now you recall It means nothing at all You were stuck in a dream And you wanted to scream But it's nothing at all No it's nothing at all
Well we're travelin' light Gonna speed through the night But it's nothing at all No it's nothing at all
Then i painted your face On a twenty dollar bill But it isn't legal tender And i think about you still And all the comfort in words Provide no comfort We can all go mad together That's what friends are for
And at the sideshow by the seashore The girls are dressed as mermaids An electrical storm has caught us in a trap Maybe if i yell at you You'll trust in what i'm sayin' But i'm keepin' all the secrets And i have nothing else to say
Sneakin' a kiss On the fire escape A little game of pup tent With a blanket and a broom My mind is taking photographs Of every little thing Exhibit number 2 ... A piece of white chocolate
And if you want me to, I'm gonna cry you a river tonight And if you ask me to, I'm gonna crawl right into your dreams And did you know, I feel a chokin' in the back of my throat
I see you walkin' Walkin' on tippytoes Swayin' like a sunflower On a Spanish afternoon My mind is taking photographs Of every little thing Exhibit number 8 ... Don't be late
You crept in Underneath the radar Living in a glass house Sleeping on a glass bed But my mind has taken photographs Of every little thing Honey turn around And the shame remains
In the tiny tiny hours Between the evening and the day We have placed our final bets We have come out to play Fancy drinks a lucky toasts I like this time the most
You're out all night Chasin' girlies You're late to work And you go home earlies
Lookin' lost in chinatown Why are we hidin' from our friends Rushing 'round in taxi cabs Is it time to make amends You'll get yours and i'll get mine You can't be lucky all the time
You're out all night Chasin' girlies You're late to work And you go home earlies
all of a sudden the girl of my dreams she never asks she always screams do you see her face in a puddle at my feet as i bend down to kiss the street
and i'll come runnin' to her and i'll come runnin' to her
her sleep is troubled her face will twitch she wakes up angry and i'm bewitched her smile is forced she's always late but she's not sorry and i capitulate
and i'll come runnin' to her and i'll come runnin' to her
all of a sudden the girl of my dreams she never asks she always screams
Well they're swapping pharmaceuticals in Mussolini Park And they're wigglin' and wobbilin' and dozin' in the dark And it's winter in New Jersey and it's Christmas in New York With a giggle and a stare and a bottle and a cork And Kristina took your photo with a needle and a spoon But she said we got to hurry cos her dad will be home soon And these superfreaky memories have put me in my place But then my superfreaky memories are gone without a trace
Please excuse my eyes Please excuse my hands Please excuse my eyes Put me in my place
In a dirty little room in a nasty little world You were out of your mind you were throwin' up your hands You were makin' crazy plans left a message on the mirror And your mouth was making words but there was nobody there Now the gears are rolling by and you don't get any wiser And the years are rolling on but you're going round and round And these superfreaky memories have put me in my place But my superfreaky memories are gone without a trace
It's true You're lazy You're tired And crazy And you know there's something more But you can't give it a name Someone's selling all your heroes And they seem so tame
You heard it all before And said your case was tragic You heard it all before And now they say it's magic
You need Time off For good Behavior And you know there's something else But you can't give a name Someone's selling all your heroes And it seems such a shame
You heard it all before You said your case was tragic You heard it all before And now they say it's magic
You heard it all before They said your case was tragic You heard it all before And now they say it's magic
