Dreams Don't Come True

Thought there'd be a man In a suit and a ten-gallon hat He'd give me a deal and a red Cadillac I'd make hit records and get hooked on drugs But I wound up pregnant and strung out on love Dreams don't come true They'll make a mess out of you They'll hang around the darkest corners of your mind They'll bleed your heart black and blue Don't let anyone tell you they do Dreams don't come true I thought I'd change the world With three chords and the truth I'd be like Elvis but with lipstick and boobs My bra would be floatin' in a guitar-shaped pool And I'd flip the bird to them whores in high school Dreams don't come true They'll make a mess out of you They'll hang around the darkest corners of your mind They'll bleed your heart black and blue Don't let anyone tell you they do Dreams don't come true I hate to put a damper on the fairytale you pictured I should have known all along That glass slippers give you blisters Dreams don't come true They'll make a mess out of you They'll hang around the darkest corners of your mind They'll bleed your heart black and blue (black and blue) Don't let anyone tell you they do Dreams don't come true
