Bad Dreams Lyrics by The Shelters

Jupiter Sidecar

0

[Verse 1]
Everything I ever knew
It told me not to be like you
But now you're somethin'
But if everyone was just like you
Then there'd be nothin'
And if everyone was just like you
We'd all fall apart
[Chorus]
What a bad dream
Makes a man wanna scream
(Ah-ah-ah)
I said, shakin' things up
On the usual scene
(Bad dreams)
You get what you want
Lookin' for a reaction
(Ah-ah-ah)
Light 'em all up
In the usual fashion
(Bad dreams)
[Verse 2]
You got another point of view
But what am I supposed to do
If I can't fight this?
Once the fire begins to kiss the fuse
You can't un-light it
Yeah, you don't know what it's like to lose
It tears me apart
[Chorus]
What a bad dream
Makes a man wanna scream
(Ah-ah-ah)
I said, shakin' things up
On the usual scene
(Bad dreams)
You get what you want
Lookin' for a reaction
(Ah-ah-ah)
Light 'em all up
In the usual fashion
(Bad dreams)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
What a bad dream
Makes a man wanna scream
(Ah-ah-ah)
I said, shakin' things up
On the usual scene
(Bad dreams)
Oh, you get what you want
Lookin' for a reaction
(Ah-ah-ah)
Light 'em all up
In the usual fashion
(Bad dreams)
