Dreamer (Live) Lyrics
Roger Hodgson
Lyrics
Dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, you say you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said "Far out, - What a day, a year, a life it is!"
You know, - Well you know you had it comin' to you,
Well now there's not a lot I can do
Dreamer, you stupid little dreamer;
So now you put your head in your hands, oh no!
I said "Far out, - What a day, a year, a life it is!"
You know, - Well you know you had it comin' to you,
Well now there's not a lot I can do.
We'll work it out someday
If I could see something
You can see anything you want boy
I could be someone-
You can be anyone, celebrate boy.
If I could do something-
Well you can do a something,
If I could do anything-
Well can you do something out of this world?
Take a dream on a Sunday
Take a life, take a holiday
Take a lie, take a dreamer
dream, dream, dream, dream, dream along...
Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
OH NO!
