There's a cat in a hat that isn't there;
Flowers in the garden disappear in thin air
Oh, oh, let fantasy live
There's colors in the sky that aren't all blue
There's a red and a yellow and a green one too
Oh, oh, let fantasy live

Now fantasy lives as well as reality
But sometimes they don't get along
'cause being real is such a triviality
While fantasizing won't let you go wrong

There's a lover in your bed 'most every night
She's really in your head but that's all right
Oh, oh, let fantasy live
There's a star in the night that'll never die
As long as me and you have a twinkle in our eye
Oh, oh, let fantasy live

Now fantasy lives as well as reality
But sometimes they don't get along
'cause being real is such a triviality
While fantasizing won't let you go wrong, wrong

There's a butterfly walking in a tightrope act
While a bear in the swimming pool floats on his back
Oh, oh, let fantasy live
(There's a cat in a hat)
Oh, oh, let fantasy live
(There's colors in the sky)
Oh, oh, let fantasy live
(There's a lover in your bed)
Oh, oh, let fantasy live
(There's a star in the night)
Oh, oh, let fantasy live
(There's a butterfly walking)
Oh, oh, let fantasy live
