[Verse 1]
Dear Mr. Fantasy, play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything to take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy
You are the one who makes us all glad
But doing that, but doing that, you break down in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight life you had
We wouldn't have known you
We wouldn't have known you all these years

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Dear Mr. Fantasy, play us a tune
Something to keep us all happy
Do anything to keep us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that, you break down in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight life you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years

[Instrumental Outro]
