Dream Dancer

Lyrics – M. Novak, C. Webster
Music – K. Johnson

As night time falls the Dream Dancer calls
He’s waited all day, quiet and hidden away
Splicing our thoughts, directing the scenes
His reason for being is making our dreams.

CHORUS
Your sittin’ on a fence and the sky is falling
Hedges have eyes and the world is calling
A piece of cake pulls up a chair
And asks the white elephant
Where is the fair

Your finger lickin’ good said the clown to the cake
You are what you eat, you are what you bake
The camel says it’s easier to say than to do
You can’ have your cake and eat it too
I think I’ve had these visions before
It’s just the Dream Dancer opening my mind’s door.

The eyes in the back of my head reveal the past
In one ear and out the other, is the die already cast
Beware the visions that are meant to tease
And don’t put your foot into your mouth please.
The Dream Dancer’s a prophet, so says Sigmund Freud
Or is it just the mind’s boredom filling a void.

CHORUS

As night time falls the Dream Dancer calls
He’s waited all day, quiet and hidden away
Splicing our thoughts, directing the scenes
His reason for being is making our dreams.

With the Dream Dancer in your head
It’s a dog eat dog world, even in your bed
You can’t take it with you when you’re counting sheep
All the visions and the scenes are not yours to keep
Eighty six the Dream Dancer His predictions hold no answer
He’ll never give you the dreams that you want
His only pleasure is to make you hunt
We open our eyes, take the good with the bad
We await his return so a new scene can be had
The Dream Dancer’s a prophet, so says Sigmund Freud
Or is it just the mind’s boredom filling a void.
