I Had A Dream, Joe

I had a dream

I had a dream

I had a dream, Joe



I had a dream, Joe

You were standing in the middle of an open road

I had a dream, Joe

Your hands were raised up to the sky

And your mouth was covered in foam

I had a dream, Joe

A shadowy Jesus flitted from tree to tree

I had a dream, Joe

And a society of whores stuck needles in an image of me

I had a dream, Joe

It was Autumn time and thickly fell the leaves

And in that dream, Joe

A pimp in seersucker suit sucked a toothpick

And pointed his finger at me



I had a dream,

I had a dream,

I had a dream, Joe



I opened my eyes, Joe

The night had been a giant, dribbling and pacing the boards

I opened my eyes, Joe

All your letters and cards stacked up against the door

I opened my eyes, Joe

The morning light came slowly tumbling through the crack

In the window, Joe

And I thought of you and I felt like I was lugging

A body on my back



I had a dream,

I had a dream,

I had a dream, Joe



Where did you go, Joe?

On that endless, senseless, demented drift

Where did you go, Joe?

Into the woods, into the trees, where you move and shift

Where did you go, Joe?

All dressed up in your ridiculous seersucker suit

Where did you go, Joe?

With that strew of wreckage

Forever at the heel of your boot



I had a dream

I had a dream

I had a dream, Joe

I had a dream

I had a dream

I had a dream, Jo
