Hello, shoes
I'm sorry, but I'm gonna have to stand on you again
Oh, wow!
What a horrible dream I just had!
I looked in the sky
Where an elephant's eye
Was looking at me
From a bubblegum tree
And all that I knew was
The hole in my shoe which
Was letting in water
(Letting in water)
Letting in water
Oh, no
What a really heavy bummer
I walked through a field
That just wasn't real
With one hundred tin soldiers
That stood at my shoulder
(Fascists)
And all that I knew was
The hole in my shoe which
Was letting in water
(Letting in water)
Letting in water
Oh, no
What's happening
I climbed on the back of a giant anchovy
And flew off through a gap in the clouds
To a land where music was playing
Incredibly loudly
And everyone was really happy
And having a really good time
Except me
I started to fall
And suddenly woke
And the dew on the grass
Had soaked through my coat
And all that I knew was
The hole in my shoe which
Was letting in water
(Letting in water)
Letting in water
Oh, what an amazingly beautiful vibe
I think I'm gonna get in the bath with my shoes on
'Cause, like, it won't make any difference, right
Oh, wow!
Hey, I feel like I'm just, like, floating
Is anyone lighting a Joss stick?
I must be a pretty amazing guy, right
To have dreamed all this
Maybe it's 'cause I ate all that cheese I found
Under the cooker
Oh no, hang on
Oh, I must be back in reality again
Oh no, look at all that washing up
Heavy
Oh no, the plughole's bunged up with cornflakes
I wonder why they don't make whole-meal cornflakes
Oh no, Dennis Moore's delivered more lupins
