I had a dream I had a wife
she was the best thing in my life
she loved me more than she could stand
she said I'd always be her man
and when I woke up I told her
she just turned away her shoulder
I said life would be much colder if
you let your feelings smolder
and life would be much colder if
you harden like a boulder
she said it's easy
just do something for me
I had a dream that I had friends
and I'd do anything for them
and if they ever felt alone
I would call them on the phone
and when I woke up I wished I knew
what all my friends were up to
were they happy with their lives or were
they struggling to get through
but I didn't even know at all
cuz I couldn't bring myself to call
they said it's easy
just do something for me.
na na na na na na na
she and I float up high on a cloud of strawberry cream
na na na na na na na
swimming naked in a pool in a rainbow of velvet and green
na na na na na na na
we can do anything we please
in our dreams
and when I woke up I told her
she just turned away her shoulder
I said life would be much colder if
you let your feelings smolder
and life would be much colder if
you harden like a boulder
she said it's easy
just do something
she said it's easy
just do something
it's easy
just do something for me
