Living the Life of a Dreamer - Alice Russell

Who were you before you were?

Before the sweets passed through your teeth

Before the games you learnt weren’t there

Before your mama would soap up your hair

Where did you learn to snatch those toys?

And tell me, where did you learn to make that noise?

Screaming seemed to get you far

Spitting your dummy out of your cart

Living the life of a dreamer

Do you know what it means?

Do you know what it means?

Living the life of a dreamer

Do you know what it means?

Do you know what it means?

Greedy, greedy, greedy, take, take, take

Then it’s kissy, smiley, fake, fake, fake like a cake

Do you think that you can change up yourself

So you can stand on your friends heads?

I said chocolate’s on the pillows are complimentary

That’s what I said, on the fence

Living the life of a dreamer

Do you know what it means?

Do you know what it means?

Living the life of a dreamer

Do you know what it means?

Do you know what it means?

Dreamer, dreamer, dreamer, dreamer

Dreamer, dreamer, dreamer, dreamer

Living the life of a dreamer

Do you know what it means?

Do you know what it means?

Living the life of a dreamer

Do you know what it means?

Do you know what it means?

Like my friend Icarus

Went and melted off his wings

Like a fallen, fallen angel

Lifts his heavy weights before he sings

That bitch that cut of Samson’s hair

It ain’t nice, and it sure ain’t fair

Now everybody, so play fair

We are the same, we are the same

As everybody, so play fair

We are the same, we are the same

Who were you before you were

Before the sweets passed through your teeth?

Before the games you learnt weren’t there

Before your mamma would soap up your hair

Where did you learn to snatch those toys?

Where did you learn to make that noise?

Screaming seem to get you far

Spitting that dummy filling your cart

Living the life of a dreamer

Your living the life do you know what it means

Your living the life of a dreamer

Your living the life do you know what it means

Its not what it seems
