Lyrics for Song: Sweet Dreams
Lyrics for Album: A Piano: The Collection [2006]
"Lie, lie, lies everywhere,"
said the Father to the son
you're peppermint breath gonna choke him to death
Daddy watch your little black sheep run
He got knives in his back
everytime he opens up
You say, "He gotta be strong if you want to be a man"
Mister I don't know how you can have
Sweet Dreams
Sweet Dreams
Land, land of Liberty we're run
by a constipated man
when you live in the past
you refuse to see
when your daughter comes home 9 months pregnant
with Five Billion Points of Light
gonna shine 'em on the face of your friends--
They got the earth in a sling
They got the world on her knees
They've even got your zipper
between their teeth
Sweet Dreams
Sweet Dreams
you say, you say, you say you have 'em
I say that you're a liar
Go on, go on, go on and dream
your house is on fire
Well, well, well summer wind
been catchin' up with me
"Elephant mind, missy
you don't have you're forgettin'
to fly darlin' when you sleep"
I got hazy lazy Susan
takin' turns all over my dreams
I got lizards and snakes
runnin' through my body
Funny how they all have my face
Sweet Dreams
Sweet Dreams
