[00:20.70] |
One time ago a crazy dream came to me |
[00:22.77] |
I dreamt I was walkin' into World War Three |
[00:26.64] |
Went to the doctor the very next day |
[00:28.52] |
To see what kinda words he could say |
[00:30.33] |
He said, "It was a bad dream" |
[00:31.52] |
|
[00:34.42] |
I wouldn't worry 'bout it none, though |
[00:35.43] |
They were my own dreams |
[00:36.49] |
Were only in your head |
[00:38.67] |
|
[00:49.06] |
I said, "Hold it Doc, a World War |
[00:50.50] |
passed through my brain" |
[00:51.87] |
He said, "Nurse, get your pad, the boy's insane" |
[00:56.63] |
|
[00:57.56] |
He grabbed my arm, I said, "Ouch!" |
[00:59.32] |
As I landed on the psychiatric couch |
[01:01.31] |
|
[01:02.03] |
He said, "Tell me about it" |
[01:04.90] |
|
[01:12.59] |
Well, the whole thing started at three o'clock fast |
[01:14.91] |
It was all over by quarter past |
[01:18.59] |
I was down in the sewer with some little lover |
[01:20.72] |
When I peeked out from a manhole cover |
[01:24.28] |
Wondering who turned the lights on us |
[01:26.96] |
|
[01:36.03] |
Well, I got up and I walked around |
[01:38.15] |
Up and down the lonesome town |
[01:41.84] |
|
[01:43.78] |
I stood on wondering which way to go |
[01:45.79] |
I lit a cigarette on a parking meter |
[01:47.91] |
And walked on down the road, it was a normal day |
[01:52.32] |
|
[02:03.14] |
Well, I rung me fallout shelter bell |
[02:05.26] |
And I leaned my head and I gave a yell |
[02:08.50] |
Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man |
[02:10.57] |
|
[02:11.13] |
Shotgun fired and away I ran |
[02:14.70] |
I don't blame them too much though, |
[02:16.44] |
they didn't know me |
[02:19.76] |
|
[02:27.97] |
Down the corner by the hot-dog stand |
[02:30.39] |
I seen a man, I said, Howdy friend |
[02:33.77] |
I guess there's just us two |
[02:35.71] |
He screamed a bit and away he flew |
[02:38.64] |
|
[02:39.20] |
Thought I was a Communist |
[02:42.33] |
|
[03:00.68] |
Well, I spied me a girl before she could leave |
[03:02.77] |
I said, Let's go play Adam and Eve |
[03:05.28] |
|
[03:06.59] |
I took her by the my hand heart and was thumpin' |
[03:08.45] |
When she said, Hey man, you crazy or something |
[03:11.58] |
|
[03:14.08] |
You seen what happened last time they started |
[03:17.14] |
|
[03:33.71] |
Well, I seen me a Cadillac window uptown |
[03:36.29] |
There was nobody around |
[03:38.98] |
I got into the driver's seat |
[03:40.79] |
And I drove down 42nd street in my Cadillac |
[03:46.64] |
Good car to drive after a war |
[03:51.21] |
|
[04:03.96] |
Well, I remember seein' some ad |
[04:06.02] |
So I turned on my Conelrad |
[04:07.90] |
but I didn't pay the Con Ed bill |
[04:10.52] |
So the radio didn't work so well, |
[04:13.91] |
turned on my record player |
[04:17.64] |
It was Rock-A-Day, Johnny singin', |
[04:19.83] |
Tell your ma, tell your pa |
[04:22.83] |
Our loves are gonna grow ooh wah, ooh wah |
[04:27.20] |
|
[04:39.72] |
I was feelin' kinda lonesome and blue |
[04:41.42] |
I needed somebody to talk to |
[04:44.54] |
So I called up the operator of time just |
[04:47.11] |
to hear a voice of some kind |
[04:52.07] |
When you hear the beep it will be three o'clock |
[04:55.83] |
She said that for over an hour and I hung up |
[05:00.39] |
|
[05:11.15] |
Well, the doctor interrupted me just about then |
[05:13.52] |
Sayin', "Hey I've been havin' the same old dreams |
[05:17.65] |
But mine was a little different you see |
[05:20.34] |
I dreamt the only person left after the war was me |
[05:24.63] |
I didn't see you around |
[05:26.76] |
|
[05:34.39] |
Well, now time passed and now it seems |
[05:37.20] |
Everybody's having them dreams |
[05:40.95] |
Everybody sees their self walkin' around with no one else |
[05:46.27] |
|
[05:48.46] |
Half the people can be part right all of the time and |
[05:53.58] |
Some of the people can be all right part of the time but |
[05:57.40] |
All the people can't be all alright all of the time |
[06:01.53] |
I think Abraham Lincoln said that |
[06:06.27] |
I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours |
[06:08.89] |
I said that |
