He dreams that he is eating but he never eats a thing He dreams that he is working he dreams that he does sing But if you ever ask him there are no ifs and buts The best dream that he’s ever had is that he did wake up He dreams he is a hero he dreams he’s saved a life He dreams he’s got a big house and a beautiful wife But if you ever ask him there are no ifs and buts The best dream that he’s ever had is that he did wake up He dreams he’s got a country of which he is the king That on his neck and on his wrist the diamonds they cling But if you ever ask him there are no ifs and buts The best dream that he’s ever had is that he did wake up He didn’t wake up!
