Living the Dream - Sloan

Everybody gather round

And listen to my dream, you’re bound

To thank me when I’m done

So here is one

I was there and you were too

But it wasn’t exactly you

And it wasn’t really even me Don’t you see

I don’t expect

For you to understand completely

Even I Don’t ask why

Cause it can’t be summed up neatly

Word of mouth began to fly

So when people promised to pay to publish, I Reluctantly agreed

Cause people need

A voice for those without one, I’ve

Tried to keep the dream alive

Now I’m leaving it up to you

To misconstrue

And oh, have you seen

In the May or may not issue

Of some Vague magazine

Interpretations like that make you wish you

Kept shut your mouth

And your heart cause your subconscious

Should be yours

And no one else’s

I shall die a thousand deaths

Oh The dream is over

Oh I can’t believe it That the world went on without me Now I’m that much more behind

But I’ll be all right, cause

Wide awake or sound asleep

Either way, we’re all counting sheep

No, I don’t dream for a living

I’m just living the dream

I’m living the dream

I’m living the dream
