Ken e Hall - Family Sweet Dreams lyrics

The moon dressed in her nightly attire Showing only a glimpse of her crescent shape Heralds the nightly rest of sleeping mortals Windows yellow darkens with curtain drape Smoke thins from the chimney portals As a lonely dog howls at the locked door Midnight strikes silently as dreams begin The cat purrs stretched out on the floor Mother dreams of holiday isles Punting Father dreams of another winner The boy's toys dreamt, stretch for miles Labrador whimpers for a never ending dinner No way will the mouse dream to please He creeps past the snoozing fat cat To search and seize crumbs of cheese The end of the chain knows where his dinner is at Crawling in with knife and fork in hand The co*kroach to the kitchen silent and fast As sleepers dream, goes for dinner so grand As night ticks on the morning wakes to the alarm clock blast Dreams at end the family jump out of bed Another day alive another night is dead
