Some time ago a crazy dream came to me,
D#
I dreamt I was walkin' into World War Three,
G# C#
I went to the doctor the very next day
D#
To see what kinda words he could say.
G# C#
He said it was a bad dream.
I wouldn't worry 'bout it none, though,
D#
Them old dreams 're only in your head.

I said, "Hold it, Doc, a World War passed through my brain."

He said, "Nurse, get your pad, the boy's insane,"

He grabbed my arm, I said "Ouch!"
D#
As I landed on the psychiatric couch,
G#
He said, "Tell me about it."

I was down in the sewer with some little lover
D# G#
When I peeked out from a manhole cover
C#
Wondering who turned the lights on us.

Well, I got up and I walked around
D#
Up and down the lonesome town.
G# C#
I stood a-wondering which way to go,
D#
I lit a cigarette on a parking meter
G#
And walked on down the road.
C#
It was a normal day.

And I leaned my head and I gave a yell,

"Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man."
D# G#
A# shotgun fired and away I ran.
C#
I don't blame 'im too much though,
He didn't know me.

And I drove down 42nd Street

In my Cadillac.

Good car to drive after a war.

So I turned on my Conelrad.

But I didn't pay the Con Ed bill,

So the radio didn't work so well.

Turned on my record player

I needed somebody to talk to.

So I called up the operator of time

Just to hear a voice of some kind.
"When you hear the beep

It will be three o'clock,"

Well, the doctor interrupted me just about then,
D#
Sayin, "Hey I've been havin' the same old dreams,

But mine was a little different you see.
D# G#
I dreamt the only person left after the war was me.
I didn't see you around."

Well, now time passed and now it seems
D#
Everybody's having them dreams.
G# C# D# G# C#
Everybody sees themselves walkin' around with no one else.
Half of the people can be part right all of the time,
D#
Some of the people can be all right part of the time.
But all of the people can't be all right all of the time.
G# C#
I think Abraham Lincoln said that.
"I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours,"
I said that.
