Dream
WHAT IS A DREAM, TELL ME MY FRIEND,
IS A BAD OMEN OR A GOOD SEND?
I'M NOT TOO SURE ON THE MATTER,
ALL REPLIES PLEASE PUT IN LETTER.
I HAD A GOOD DREAM LAST NIGHT,
MY PROBLEMS PUT ALL SUDDENLY RIGHT.
MONEY I HAD ABUNDANCE,
MY PICTURE IN EVERY GIRLS PENDANT.
I DROVE A HORSE FROM A CHARIOT OF GOLD,
DID FUN THINGS, AND WAS BOLD.
NOT A MUTTER OR A SLAG FROM ANYONE,
CHEERS AND CLAPS IN THE RAIN AND SUN.
A GIRL IN EACH ARM I DID HAVE,
FOOD FOR ALL NO-ONE DID STARVE.
BROTHERLY LOVE IT DID SPREAD,
BLACK AND WHITE THEY DID WED.
UNFORTUNATELY IT WAS ALL A DREAM,
FOR IN REALITY IT DOES SEEM.
HATRED FOR EACH OTHER IS IN STRIFE,
EVEN WITH THE FORK AND KNIFE.
MY THOUGHTS WHEN WOKEN WERE TO SAY,
LET ME DREAM THIS DREAM AGAIN TODAY.
UNFORTUNATELY IT DID NOT APPEAR,
I WAS LEFT IN REALITY, TO LIVE IN FEAR
