The Divine Comedy
Titty’s Dream
Stealers steal, and creepers creep
Over oceans, dark and deep
Through the revolving doors of sleep
Stealers steal, creepers creep
Talkers talk, and takers take
Dreamers are dreaming that they are awake
Keep hearing voices on the lake
Talkers talk, takers take
Still I wait and go to sleep
It's very late to be sailing the seas
Even explorers ought to be
In their beds, sound asleep
Stealers steal, and creepers creep
Going to bury the treasure we've taken
While the world is sound asleep
Gotta be finished before the dawn's breaking
Best to stay out of the way
Hiding in chatters and quietly quaking
Even though it's plain as day
We're fanciful, fictional, all in your mind
Talkers talk, and takers take
You will remember us when you awaken
Um, excuse me, I'm awake
You think you're awake but you're very mistaken
It's a dream, it seems so real
A simple mistake anyone could be making
Can't you see we're fantasy
We're fanciful, fictional, all in your mind
Tell me, if you don't exist
How come we're having this weird conversation?
Listen missy, it's like this
We only exist in your imagination
Yes I guess that would explain
Why you are singing and dancing and making
All the strangest transformations
Fanciful, fictional, all in my mind
