Tori Amos - Sweet Dreams
from the "Winter" single

"Lie-lie-lies everywhere" said the father to the son
You're peppermint breath gonna choke him to death
Daddy watch your little black sheep run
He's got kni-kni-knives in his back everytime he opens up
You say "He gotta be strong if he wants to be a man"
Mr 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 comes home nine months pregnent
With five billion points of light
Gonna shine them on the face of your friends,
They've got the earth in a sling, they've got the world on her knees
They've even got your zippers between thier 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, go on and dream
Your house is on fire
Come along now, hey

Well well summer wind been catchin up with me
"Elephant mind missy you don't have
You're forgettin to fly darlin when you sleep"
I got hazy lazy susan takin twinds all over my dreams
I got lizards and snakes runnin 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, go on and dream
Your house is on fire
Come along now

Sweet dreams
