When I met you in the restaurant
You could tell I was no debutante. You asked me what's my pleasure, "A movie or a measure"? I'll have a cup of tea and tell you of my dreaming. Dreaming is free. I don't want to live on charity. Pleasure's real or is it fantasy? Reel to reel is living rarity. People stop and stare at me, we just walk on by; We just keep on dreaming. Feet feet: walking a two mile. Meet meet: meet me at the turnstile. I never met him, I'll never forget him. Dream dream: even for a little while. Dream dream: filling up an idle hour. Fade away, radiate. I sit by and watch the river flow. I sit by and watch the traffic go. Imagine something of your very own; Something you can have and hold. I'd build a road in gold just to have some dreaming. Dreaming is free. |

Shayla worked in a factory.
She wasn't history. She's just a number. One day she gets her final pay and she goes far away. Green trees call to me. I am free but life is so cheap. Scenery is still outside of me. All alone, trapped by its beauty. Shayla turned to run away, To leave in peace and end her stay. Years of fear were in her way. Lost in space and down she came. Suddenly some subtle entity, Some cosmic energy, brushed her like shadows. Down here we stop to wonder. Cars on the freeway. Bright lights and thunder. |

No, I don't believe in luck.
No, I don't believe in circumstance no more. Accidents never happen in a perfect world, So I won't believe in luck. I saw you walking in the dark, So I slipped behind your footsteps for a while. Caught you turning 'round the block... Fancy meeting in a smaller world. After all, accidents never happen. Could have planned it all. Precognition in my ears. Accidents never happen in a perfect world. Complications disappear. Now you love me. I, yeah, I can tell. I never lied. I never cried. And you, you knew so well. Like the Magi on the hill, I can divinate your presence from afar. And I'll follow you until I can bring you to a perfect world. Accidents never happen in a perfect world. Accidents never happen. |

Die young, stay pretty.
Deteriorate in your own time. Tell 'em you're dead and wither away. Are ya living alone or with your family? a dried up twig on your family tree? Are ya waiting for the reaper to arrive? Or just to die by the hand of love? Love for youth, love for youth. So, die young and stay pretty. Leave only the best behind. Slipping sensibilities. Tragedy in your own dream. Oh, ya sit all alone in your rocking chair, transistor pressed against an ear. Were ya waiting at the bus stop all your life? Or just to die by the hand of love? Love for youth, love for youth. So live fast 'cause it won't last. Dearly near senility. Was it good or maybe you won't tell? |

What's all that commotion going on?
The boy in the back on his second attack Wants his baby back. Wants his baby back. What's all that commotion that you hear? The girl in the back who was doing The quake got a belly ache. She can't concentrate. Pick up the beat, you can move like You're made out of vapor. "Catch me if you can" is what she said with her hands. Come on and take me back. Can you take her back? When she gives you the beat and you get the shine, The world slows down and she stops on a dime. Got a number when you close your eyes Like a real magician. Still she knows she'll never lose a thing. She can put you up on a shelf Until she wants to pull the string. Still you know she'll never slip away. Keep time in your head, counting in your head. Slow motion. I can play with time. I can keep today but tomorrow's fine. Stop and look at the pictures rolling in your head. Slow motion. You can play with time. You can leave her today but tomorrow's fine. Stop and live in your dreams at night, Rolling in your bed. Slow motion, you can stop on a dime. Slow motion, you ought to try it sometime. Take me back on another track. Take me back, take me back. Slow motion, you can pick up the beat. Slow motion, you can stop on the street. Take me back on another track. Take me back, take me back. |

Close your eyes and you will see micro flashing neon lights.
Open your eyes and you will see it still looks like the same thing. Lie and wait for sleep and listen to your heart beat too fast for sleep. Close your eyes and you will see the sound-a-sleep. I want to go, I want to go, I want to go down to go to sleep. Your frame of reference is my swimming pool. My, my swimming pool still looks like the China Sea. Pool to sea and finally the sound-a-sleep. Feel the muscles in your face twitch, relax, remembering everything that went down and will go down. I want to go down to sleep. Insomnia, no sleep disease, petties parking, feed me please. Lie and wait for sleep and listen to your heart beat too fast for sleep. |

Oh, please don't leave me alone! Oh! No, I don't want you to go! Oh, please don't leave me alone! Oh! Dear Annett, Soon I'll be with you before they know, Before the show. I'm not a whore. I dance no more. I'll be with you across the border, dearest Anastasia. I'm leaving soon. I'm sorry too, but burn this letter. Burn my picture. They won't know I've crossed the border. Love, Victor. Oh, I don't want you to go! Oh, don't leave me alone! Oh! |

Every day you've go to wake up and disappear
Behind your makeup. Take away your calendar watch and You can't keep track until your heart attack. Hey, I'm living in a magazine, Page to page in my submarine! Hey now, Cindy, you can't get to me, need an elevator. Hey, I'll see you later, 'Cause I'm not living in the real world. I'm not living in the real world. I'm not living in the real world, no more, no more. Yeah. I can be whatever I want to. I talk to me, I even agree. Every day's a holiday. You can look through the glass and take a photograph. You will never ever walk on the moon, Leave your body and float through the room. You could never conquer me, 'Cause I'm not here and you're not there. And, and I'm not living in the real world. I'm not living in the real world. I'm not living in the real world, no more, no more. Yeah. Didn't I ever tell you I was gone? Didn't I ever tell you I was gone? Bye bye! I can do anything at all. I'm invisible and I'm twenty feet tall. Pull the plug on your digital clock and It all goes dark and the bodies stop. Hey, I'm living in a magazine, Page to page in my teenage dream. Hey, now, Mary, you can't follow me, Without a satellite. I'm on a power flight 'Cause I'm not living in the real world. I'm not living in the real world. I'm not living in the real world, no more, no more. I'm not living in the real world. I'm not living in the real world. I'm not living in the real world, No more, no more, no more. No more, no more, no more. No more, no more, no more. |
