Some Time Ago A Crazy Dream Came To Me,

I Dreamt I Was Walkin' Into World War Three,

I Went To The Doctor The Very Next Day

To See What Kinda Words He Could Say.

He Said It Was A Bad Dream.

I Wouldn't Worry 'bout It None, Though,

They Were My Own Dreams And They're Only In My Head.



I Said, "Hold It, Doc, A World War Passed Through My Brain."

He Said, "Nurse, Get Your Pad, This Boy's Insane,"

He Grabbed My Arm, I Said "Ouch!"

He Screamed A Bit And Away He Flew.

Thought I Was A Communist.



Well, I Spied A Girl And Before She Could Leave,

"Let's Go And Play Adam And Eve."

I Took Her By The Hand And My Heart It Was Thumpin'

When She Said, "Hey Man, You Crazy Or Sumpin',

You See What Happened Last Time They Started."



Well, I Seen A Cadillac Window Uptown

And There Was Nobody Aroun',

I Got Into The Driver's Seat

And I Drove 42nd Street

In My Cadillac.

Good Car To Drive After A War.



Well, I Remember Seein' Some Ad,

So I Turned On My Conelrad.

But I Didn
