the lemon twigs – rock dreams lyrics
[verse 1: carol]
teaching at the school
feeling like a fool
tell me, what did i do wrong?
everybody used to love my songs
but now i’m just a teacher mom!
[verse 2: carol]
what a big mistake
my taking in an ape
k!lled my rock and rollin’ dreams
the boy belongs in big tall trees and me
well i belong in msg
[pre-chorus]
maybe i’ll play rock
and that’ll pay a lot
yeah, yeah, yeah
[chorus: carol & bill]
wake up the kid!
good morning, it’s breakfast!
i know how you like your bananas
quit with the screeching!
school’s in an hour!
while my dreams are dying
you’ll be multiplying
you’re gonna like your new school!
[verse 3: carol & bill]
shane he doesn’t know
that very long ago
when dad and i were still quite thin
oh, we came upon a baby chimp
decided that we’d take it in
forgetting all our dreams
we took him and it seemed
we had a little family
for seven hundred bucks a week, i teach
and it pays for all the food shane eats
and he eats a lot!
[pre-chorus]
maybe i’ll play rock
and that’ll pay a lot
yeah, yeah, yeah
[chorus: carol & bill]
wake up the kid!
good morning, it’s breakfast!
i know how you like your bananas
quit with the screeching!
school’s in an hour!
while my dreams are dying
you’ll be multiplying
you’re gonna like your new school!
[outro: carol]
well, it could have been me
up on the stage!
yeah, it could have been me
if it weren’t for the chimp in the cage!
oh, it could have been me
up on the stage
yeah, it could have been me
if it weren’t for the chimp in the cage
oh, it could have been me
upon the stage
it could have been me
