The Jam - DREAM TIME lyrics

rate me

Streets I ran - this whole town -

Backstreets and all - I wanted to leave there.

But no matter how fast I ran, my feet were glued, I just couldn't move

there.

I saw the hate and lots of people

I heard my name called above the noise

I tried to speak but my tongue was tied

Bumped into emptiness and started to cry - oh no

I saw the lights and the pretty girls

And I thought to myself what a pretty world,

But there's something else here that puts me off.

And I'm so scared dear, my love comes in frozen packs,

Bought in a supermarket.

Streets I ran, through wind and rain,

Around this place amongst streaming sunshine.

Scared I was, sweating now.

Feeling of doom, my bowels turned to water.

I felt hot breath whisper in my ear,

I looked for somewhere to hide but everywhere's closed.

I shut my eyes pretend not to be here,

This feeling's much to real to ever disappear - oh no.

I saw the lights and the pretty girls

And I thought to myself what a pretty world,

But there's something else here that puts me off.

And I'm so scared dear, their hate comes in frozen packs,

Bought in a supermarket.

And I'm so scared dear -

My love comes in frozen packs
