Down at the corner store Never busy any more He's in the back room talking pie In there all by himself Counting bugs up on the shelf Watching the window fill with flies Oh you dreamer Is this the way that you believed your life was gonna turn out? Oh you dreamer Is this the better world that you were making all those plans for? Meanwhile in the great indoors Pizza boxes on the floor Prescription junkies pa** the day TV actors screw around Wrapped in silk and dressing gowns A grown up drama for a day Oh you dreamer Is this the way that you believed your life was gonna turn out? Oh you dreamer Is this the better world that you were making all those plans for?
You know there's house on Victory Street Where no one wipes their feet A car is rusting in the yard Mommy scrubs and daddy scores Keeps his stash beneath the floor Under the bed of baby blue I need a guide book Get me a map Not even Indiana Jones could deal with that The tank is empty, a wheel came off How can someone find me if no one knows I'm lost? Hey, if no one knows I'm lost Oh you dreamer Is this the way that you believed your life was gonna turn out? Oh you dreamer Is this the better world that you were making all those plans for?
