TORI AMOS - Sweet Dreams lyrics

rate me

"Lie, lie, lies everywhere," said the father to the son

Your peppermint breath gonna choke 'em to death,

Daddy watch your little black sheep run

He got a knives in his back ev'ry time he opens up

You say, "he got be strong if he wanna 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 come home nine 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 world on her knees

They even got your zipper between their teeth

Sweet dreams, sweet dreams

You say, you say, you say that you have 'em

I say that you're a liar

Sweet dreams, sweet dreams

Go on, go on, go on and dream

Your house is on fire

Come along now

Well, well, summer wind been catching up with me

"elephant mind, missy you don't have

You forgettin' to fly,

Darlin', when you sleep"

I got a 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
