Well I looked for the life fantastic
|
Cos I read it in a magazine
|
What I got was myself as a plastic figurine
|
|
And the happily ever after
|
I traded everything to see
|
Now my scene is the snow on a static TV screen
|
|
Lord I can dream of an ordinary life
|
Where nothing particularly weird is going down
|
Lord I can dream of an ordinary time
|
Where nothing particularly hard is spinning us around
|
|
Well now read me a bedtime story
|
And be sure that it's nice and sweet
|
Cos I don't think I can take any more reality
|
|
With a peacefully ever after
|
For me and my little treat
|
And I don't want nobody saying "We'll wait and see"
|
|
Lord I can dream of an ordinary life
|
Where nothing particularly weird is going down
|
Lord I can dream of an ordinary time
|
Where nothing particularly hard is spinning us around
|
