Dream of a Child
When I was a boy I dreamed of Phillip MarloweHe took me as his partner took me as his friendGave me his fedora gave me shotgun feverTook me as his partner to the endWhen I was a boy I dreamed I was a jewelerWith a family business that was free and clearSelling golden earrings to Mrs Mickey MantleTrying to be gentle while I stuck it in her earThe dream of a child, the song of a manThe key and the time are at his commandThe dream of a child the song of a manThe key and the time are at his commandWhen I was a boy I dreamed I saved my sisterFrom the Rosicrucians for the love of GodI threw myself among them slaughtering their numbersStriking at their laughter crying so hardThe dream of a child the song of a manThe key and the time are at this commandThe dream of a child the song of a manThe key and the time are at his commandWhen I was a boy I dreamed that Elvis PresleyWas standing on the corner kissing Brenda LeeMama always told me love was made in HeavenTell me how my best friend could steal my love from meI love Brenda Lee - Brenda Lee loves me Aus Songtexte Mania
