The Lyrics

I hit the snooze for the tenth time today
I want to sleep so in bed I will stay
Then I rolled over
And I observed
My shoes were dancing and so was my skirt
I sat up, very confused
I heard the alarm honking like a goose
There's no way all this could be
I'm really hoping that this all is a dream

Then I see something real bright
Yogi Bear is shining a light
He tells me that its time to go
We trek across the new fallen snow

When you don't get home til quarter of three
You were out having drinks with your friends
When you eat bad food like a steak and cheese
Then you wonder why it feels like the end
Well I've got no one to blame but myself
But I really just could not work today
Work makes me suffer
I'd rather have a dream that scares - me, oh yeah

Now I guess I can admit
I minded this trip not a bit
We approached a heavy oak door
Out came a drunken Al Gore
He was snacking on cookie dough
And instead of a nose he had a big toe
Maybe I had smoked some bad weed
But I am sure that this was only a dream

When you don't get home til quarter of three
You were out having drinks with your friends
When you eat bad food like a steak and cheese
Then you wonder why it feels like the end
Well I've got no one to blame but myself
But I really just could not work today
Work makes me suffer
I'd rather have a dream that scares - me, oh yeah
