[Verse 1]
So we were down in Brazil and, man, that place is wild
We were in Rio de Janeiro, and uh, we had this
This sort of, uh, security guard type guy
And he was supposed to take us around
I said, "Hey, could, you know, could you take us to the
The favelas and show us the prostitution and the drug deals
And the knife fights, and the, you know
The street life of your town?"
He said, "Sure," so we pull up to this hooker
And she's wearing some kind of a, a bright green miniskirt
And it turns out it's a transsexual
And he says, "Get over here," and she comes over
And she thinks she's busted, but she's not busted
Naw, she's not busted
He just wanted to smack her on the ass a few times
And say, "Hey, what's up, girl?"
[Verse 2]
Get out of bed and I clear up my head and
I don't wanna go, but I do it instead
We are dreams within a dream
Get into bed and I turn off my head
And I started to float, was it something she said?
We are dreams within a dream
[Verse 3]
So I remember we got our driver's licenses
And my friend, Hillel, had this little Datsun painted green and
Hollywood would get so crazy in the winter
The rains would come
And the hills would just kind of melt down into the city lights
And, well, you know, we'd smoke weed
And we'd go up in the hills
And we'd listen to progressive rock music
And just kind of trip out and
Well, we would dream, you know, we would dream
And we would talk about what we wanted to do
And we would talk about girls and music
And, you know, Hillel wanted to be a rock star
I didn't even know what that was
I was like, "Whatever you wanna do, man
I'm comin' with you, I'm right with you, my friend"
[Verse 4]
Get out of bed and I clear up my head and
I don't wanna go, but I do it instead
We are dreams within a dream
Get into bed and I turn off my head
And I started to float, was it something she said?
We are dreams within a dream
[Verse 5]
Why in the world would you want it to be?
Why would you want to take it so, so literally?
All these things that come down from the sky
Rainin' upon your head
Make you stop and wonder why, ah
Can't they just spell it out, make it clear
Make it easy to read for the simple man like me?
I don't think so
I reach out to my family and I say
"It's not about religion and the God
Sitting in a chair in the sky with a punishing hand
Oh, it's about Heaven in your heart"
Now, when can we start?
I wanna choose love instead of fear
Won't you come, right now, over here
And be a part of my, ah?
Let me make it easier this time
I love you
