Dream City

(l.mason/s. barnacle)

Jane was an actress, now she's a waitress
Steve's at the cafe parking cars
A year or two back they were going places
Now they're just staying where they are

One night in dream city
You need more, you want fun
One night in dream city
Hot town, warm gun
One night in dream city
Your troubles ended?
No, they've just begun

No, they've just begunp>is it the world that wants an audition
Is it the world that wants a job
Lean on a corner called ambition
Wait for whatever comes along

One night in dream city
You need more, you want fun
One night in dream city
Hot town, warm gun
One night in dream city
The bright lights, the big wheel
One night in dream city
It's unkind, it's unreal
