The Ghost I Saw When I Was Dreaming

The only figure I have seen is gone

A ghost I made up in my dreams last night

I toss and turn, I shake his hand

If briefer night's encounters that I myself am never full of...

I mess my pants and call out for my folks

In hope that they'll explain this sickly joke

They know that I have never been a spiritual man

And I ain't got the time

I trust my brain

I know it's in control

I have no fear of anything at all

It makes no sense when I'm looking through your limbs

If that means it's a ghost, we should run, run, run

Ah...

All the people I do love just left

I hear their feasting down on the steps

And trickle in my streets all made of stone

I see myself in the eye of the tornado, the Cadillac camaraderie's away from me

And all the people I have seen are just ghosts

I don't think I'm in Kansas anymore

I got a fishy feeling that I was bumped on the head

Sent straight to the bottom with the latest of fashions in concrete shoes

I trust my brain

I know it's in control

I have no fear of anything at all

It makes no sense when I'm looking through your limbs

If that means it's a ghost, ...ah, we should probably run

Forever's here

There's nothing wrong

Say the words that any old fool can hear

I don't wanna wreck his life, jeopardize his future, run away to Mexico with his wife

I've got so much to tell you

I've got a story I bet you've never heard

About a ghost I saw when I was dreaming

Oooh...

I trust my brain

I know it's in control

I have no fear of anything at all

It makes no sense when I'm looking through your limbs

If that's because of a ghost, we should run, run, run

Oooh...
