I Need A New Dream Lyrics

Along any highway, any road

Where dapper scoundrels bum their rides

Worn, ragged soldiers grin and bear the load

Upon their lonesome hides

Holy popes and children share a cigarette

Faithful masses turn an eye

Shattered sanctuaries of bold neglect

As midget madmen figure how not why

I need a new dream, I've seen this one before

Got my eye to the keyhole, ear to the door

In their Sunday best, selling saviours door to door

I've seen this one before

Kissing babies, shaking hands

Sweat dripping panty lust

Golden caskets just filled with sand

A hungry stare, a sagging bust

You know me, I'll just take what I can get

Well, freaks and conmen chuck the jive

Fill my squander time with cold regrets

As midget madmen figure how not why

I need a new dream, I've seen this one before

Got my eye to the keyhole, ear to the door

In their Sunday best, selling saviours door to door

I've seen this one before

Sandstone castles filling flush with rain

You should have known, you read the sign

A burlesque sideshow where pleasure is pain

Pound the rest once I've got mine

What's the point, I haven't got it yet

A homespun preacher sings to the sky

Backing up his words with empty threats

As midget madmen figure how not why

I need a new dream, I've seen this one before

Got my eye to the keyhole, ear to the door

In their Sunday best, selling saviours door to door

I've seen this one before

I've seen this one before

In their Sunday best, selling saviours door to door

I've seen this one before
