| [00:39.020] | Last night I dreamed |
| [00:40.875] | I's a lonely tramp... |
| [00:43.180] | And on the road I met one |
| [00:45.221] | Of my dear old friends. |
| [00:47.429] | His giant boat shoes |
| [00:49.529] | And black, baggy trousers |
| [00:51.996] | Were topped by a funny hat, |
| [00:54.225] | Cane and moustache... |
| [00:55.790] | I said “Hi Charlie, |
| [00:58.752] | What are you doing here?” |
| [01:00.698] | He said “I don't really know - |
| [01:02.874] | I ain't never seen that place before |
| [01:04.895] | In my whole life; |
| [01:06.912] | But it looks like a mixture |
| [01:08.966] | 'Tween Hell and Paradise... |
| [01:12.785] | |
| [01:13.313] | While we were talking |
| [01:15.129] | 'Bout the good ol' times |
| [01:17.242] | We came 'cross a junction - |
| [01:19.282] | Heard the ringing of chimes: |
| [01:21.519] | We saw skyscraping buildings |
| [01:23.671] | With hundreds of millions |
| [01:25.627] | We saw thousands of streets |
| [01:27.642] | Fenced by green plastic trees... |
| [01:30.010] | Well some of these people |
| [01:31.887] | Were teeming just like ants - |
| [01:34.224] | Whereas some of them equalled |
| [01:36.202] | Tamed elephants. |
| [01:38.224] | Well, some of these people |
| [01:40.297] | Were enjoying very cruel games |
| [01:42.382] | Letting them others |
| [01:44.567] | Have all the blames... |
| [01:47.994] | |
| [02:25.346] | We just looked at each other |
| [02:27.477] | Wonderin' what's this all about |
| [02:29.686] | "Well, that ain't no problem - |
| [02:31.631] | Let's go and find out!" |
| [02:33.738] | So we proudly marched towards |
| [02:35.818] | These frightening huge towers |
| [02:37.866] | Built as high as the clouds |
| [02:40.100] | And a smell of dead flowers |
| [02:41.635] | |
| [02:42.115] | The first one we met there |
| [02:44.043] | Was a young girl with red bair |
| [02:46.129] | And curls looking very nice |
| [02:48.292] | Her we asked for advice. |
| [02:50.391] | She's just looking through us |
| [02:52.513] | As if we were plain air - |
| [02:56.442] | She just didn't care… |
| [02:58.896] | |
| [02:59.148] | We both were bewildered, |
| [03:00.808] | Friend Charlie and I, |
| [03:02.825] | And turned towards a grown-up man |
| [03:04.975] | With a gray suit and tie. |
| [03:06.888] | Charles put him a question; |
| [03:09.144] | Something like "Hey, good friend, |
| [03:11.478] | Could you please tell us |
| [03:13.283] | The name of this land? |
| [03:15.363] | 'S if nothing had happened |
| [03:17.328] | He sternly walked past us |
| [03:19.543] | Not a single frown his face did show |
| [03:23.646] | While he took the elevator |
| [03:28.860] | To the eleventh floor… |
| [03:31.470] | |
| [04:26.274] | Well, Charlie and I |
| [04:28.204] | Felt the same disillusion. |
| [04:30.209] | Back out on the street |
| [04:32.191] | We couldn't cope with confusion |
| [04:34.382] | Any longer. No more |
| [04:36.345] | We could bear like before |
| [04:38.419] | To stare into faces |
| [04:40.543] | Carved out of stone... |
| [04:42.102] | |
| [04:42.523] | Puzzled by this labyrinth |
| [04:44.654] | We felt quite alone |
| [04:46.586] | So we're desparately trying |
| [04:48.727] | To find our way home. |
| [04:50.779] | And we came 'cross a junction - |
| [04:53.065] | Heard the ringing of chimes again - |
| [04:56.264] | Again and again and again |
| [04:59.729] | Then we saw the church standing |
| [05:02.021] | Directly on the edge of town |
| [05:04.379] | There's a sign on the front gate |
| [05:06.940] | An'its words made us frown: |
| [05:08.792] | |
| [05:09.266] | This is New York town |
| [05:11.546] | 'Tis no place for a stranger |
| [05:16.127] | 'Tis no place for a clown |
| [05:19.327] | |
| [05:20.106] | And there's a flag on the steeple |
| [05:22.320] | Fixed to it by certain people: |
| [05:24.454] | |
| [05:25.122] | 'Tis Saturn City |
| [05:27.724] | 'Tis a city on Earth |
| [05:30.699] | There's no place for pity |
| [05:33.418] | Mercy's nothing worth |
| [05:35.601] | |
| [05:36.064] | Well, now at least we knew |
| [05:37.766] | Where we were... |
| [05:40.200] | Thanks Heaven - it was only a dream! |
