Laura the Horse (1999)

[Verse 1]
Laura’s birth was human
But a horse was in her mind
She couldn’t be a girl too well
A horse was more her kind
You’ll find her in the paddock
At any time at all
And so they finally moved her in
And put her in a stall

[Verse 2]
She had a friendly stable
Boy, and lots of things to eat
And sometimes lumps of sugar
As a special Sunday treat
But the questions of the neighbours
Made her parents feel ashamed
There was fighting in the family
And everyone got blamed

[Chorus]
Everybody needs a dream
Not many get to live on
Drеams are seldom what they seem
So how much crеdence should you give one?

[Verse 3]
So they found a fancy doctor
And they paid a fancy fee
And Laura nearly died
From her enforced humanity
But another doctor saw her
He soon had it arranged
To move her to a stable
Where her parents never came

[Verse 4]
And there she lives quite happily
The stable fills her day
She dreams about her cult hood
While munching on her hay
But sometimes in her daydreams
There’s a green, unending road
And a silver cowboy rider
And a saddle made of gold

[Chorus]
Everybody needs a dream
Not many get to live on
Dreams are seldom what they seem
So how much credence should you give one?

[Chorus]
Everybody needs a dream
Not many get to live on
Dreams are seldom what they seem
So how much credence should you give one?
