I had a bad dream and as the night progressed

Drenched in silliness I watched it all unfold

Oh dear, if there is any truth to this

Somebody wake me and serve up some good white lies I had a bad dream in which the phone would ring

And drown out everything, it kept me on my feet

But down in streets so quiet now I can hear ticking from meters and bounce

When I fall asleep and I climb these four walls

Wake up in the middle of conference calls

But go on forever about nothing at all Good luck, don't you feel so bad

Just don't get your hopes up

Oh, there's no reason why I had a bad dream and as the sun came in

I threw out everything that kept me company I held my breath to feel alive

The damage is measured against the regrets

The potential of tragedy hangs you bad threads

Strike up the banjo and sing us a song Good luck, don't you feel so bad

Just don't get your hopes up

Oh, there's no reason why Good luck, don't you feel so bad

Just don't get your hopes up

Luck, whether good or bad

Doesn't come from justice Good luck, don't you feel so bad

Just don't get your hopes up

Oh, there's no reason why
