i had a dream about you

Daniel Johnston

I had a dream about you
You were the queen of quite a few
And I was there, but you didn?t care
I didn?t matter somehow.

The band played and you sang a tune
And the stars fell down from the moon
And you smiled a smile that parted the sea
But you didn?t notice me
No.

Your eyes filled up the sky and they were blue
And you had a weird monkey there with you too
And you danced a jig and tipped his hat
And you turned around with a grin so fat
And he was me.

There were lights and fireworks and cannons going off in your honor
And I was worried,
But a man said ?Don?t worry, nothing can harm her?
And I grabbed the microphone and I stood all alone
And I looked up at you, and you looked down at me
And then you said ?Off with his head?.

I had a dream about you
