Punks and lifers
Doped up interns
Pigs and snitches
Rest your weary heads, all is well
You won't be strip-searched, torn up tonight
You won't be cut up, bleeding tonight
You won't be strung out, cold, shaking to your bones
Wishing you were anywhere else but right here
So dream on
Thieves and muggers
Tricks and hustlers
Cheats and traitors
Scum and low-lives
Rest you weary heads, all is well
You won't be sad or broken tonight
You won't be squealed on, ripped up tonight
You won't be back-stabbed, double-crossed, face down
Teeth knocked out, lying in a gutter somewhere
So dream on
Freaks and junkies
Fakes and phonies
Drunks and cowards
Manic preachers
Rest your weary heads, all is well
You won't be pushed or messed with tonight
You won't be lied to, ruffed up tonight
You won't be insane, paranoid, obsessed
Aimlessly wandering through the dark night
So dream on
Thugs and badmen Punks and lifers Doped up interns Pigs and snitches Rest your weary heads, all is well You won't be strip-searched, torn up tonight You won't be cut up, bleeding tonight You won't be strung out, cold, shaking to your bones Wishing you were anywhere else but right here So dream on Thieves and muggers Tricks and hustlers Cheats and traitors Scum and low-lives Rest you weary heads, all is well You won't be sad or broken tonight You won't be squealed on, ripped up tonight You won't be back-stabbed, double-crossed, face down Teeth knocked out, lying in a gutter somewhere So dream on Freaks and junkies Fakes and phonies Drunks and cowards Manic preachers Rest your weary heads, all is well You won't be pushed or messed with tonight You won't be lied to, ruffed up tonight You won't be insane, paranoid, obsessed Aimlessly wandering through the dark night So dream on Explain Request ×
