Last night I had a bad dream
|
And it blew my head away
|
And there was not solution
|
And I've been awake all day
|
And all I see is horror
|
And it creeps beneath my skin
|
And I'm knockin' for my nightmare
|
But it just won't let me in
|
There were Grandmas that were choking
|
And clinging to the necks
|
And the mothers they just lied there
|
While blood gushed from their heads
|
And the fathers they were screaming
|
While priests were being sick
|
And the vomit hit the ceiling
|
While the blood was running thick
|
|
And the goths all ran off naked
|
And the punks all started crying
|
And the rockers they all fainted
|
Cause there was no denying
|
That the hands of human nature
|
Had surely come to blows
|
And the end of earth is here
|
And only Jesus knows
|
|
But the fathers they were laughing
|
Down the public house
|
And the demons they all ran in
|
And threw the fathers out
|
And they stabbed them in their bellies
|
And they ripped off arms and legs
|
But the demons started joking
|
And had a drink instead
|
|
But the fireman they were on strike
|
So they could not resolve
|
And the army cut the phone lines
|
So they were not involved
|
And while all this was happening
|
I was fast asleep
|
With a very foolish nightmare
|
And memories I won't keep
|
|
So I woke up in the morning
|
With an idea for a song
|
And I knew that this would come out
|
And I know it wouldn't be long
|
