Tori Amos - Sweet Dreams lyrics

"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 the 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 forgetting to fly

Darling, when you sleep I got a hazy, lazy susan

Taking turns all over my dreams

I got lizards and snakes running through my body

Funny how they all have my face

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

Sweet dreams, sweet dreams

Sweet dreams, sweet dreams
