Dreams

Dreams

 

I guess I must confess it was Sleeping Beauty                      

Or bright Snow White such a delightful cutie                       

I was young and the big screen cartoons seemed real           

How could they be wrong please tell me what’s the deal?    

 

My dreams never came true how about you?

I was searching for a woman wild and true

Who would love me the whole night through

Dreams are only for the lucky few

 

Carol Gay in her day fought for the working poor

She stood for the union and against the war

Looking fine on the picket line with her sign

At last Carol has passed to meet the divine

 

My dreams never came true how about you?

I was searching for a woman wild and true

Who would love me the whole night through

Dreams are only for the lucky few

 

In the mansion on the hill there’s a huge heating bill

White collared priests in black never do God’s will

Jesus said the right path was narrow and straight

Not in heaven at fifty-seven still forsaking hate

 

My dreams never came true how about you?

I was searching for a woman wild and true

Who would love me the whole night through

Dreams are only for the lucky few

 

They call it the American dream don’t tell the Sioux

If you ain’t on top don’t stop until you get the view

Chasing nothing wake up from the loveless fantasy

We don’t need money honey just come dance with me

 

On the turntable the record sweetly spins

Come take my hand understand nobody wins

Come hear Marvin Gay singing What’s Going On

A crash in a midnight flash and this life’s gone

 

My dreams never came true how about you?

I was searching for a woman wild and true

Who would love me the whole night through

Dreams are only for the lucky few

Quark Soup

Quark Soup

 

I read the Bible at least John three sixteen                

Heard something about a king nothing of a queen     

I’m a man a science a regular physicist                     

Religion is a myth because you can’t prove it           

 

Quark Soup it’s there somewhere in my bowl

Quark Soup nothing is in control

Darwin is right on a Saturday night

Quark Soup it’s out of sight

 

I was smashing atoms in the morning haze

My sexy assistant was lavishing endless praise

I’m sure you’ll win the Nobel prize one of these days

Bob Dylan won it and his voice is out of phase

 

Quark Soup it’s there somewhere in my bowl

Quark Soup nothing is in control

Darwin is right on a Saturday night

Quark Soup it’s out of sight

 

She must have spiked neutrinos in our vino

I was quoting equations floating to and fro

The theory of relativity was feeling flat

I was howling mad sounding like Schrodinger’ s cat

 

Quark Soup it’s there somewhere in my bowl

Quark Soup nothing is in control

Darwin is right on a Saturday night

Quark Soup it’s out of sight

 

They’re having a contest for the best poem twenty bucks

They want rhyming sonnets talking about monster trucks

I got me a bag of stones we’re off to a great start

If our Quark Soup needs meat why I’ll rip out your heart

 

Don’t say love life’s best secrets are kept silent

I look at the world and ask God if He will repent

I’m free of faith it’s a filthy savage disease

But if I’m free of faith why am I down on my knees

 

Quark Soup it’s there somewhere in my bowl

Quark Soup nothing is in control

Darwin is right on a Saturday night

Quark Soup it’s out of sight
