Belle and Sebastian - I Could Be Dreaming Lyrics

I could be sleeping
I could be dreaming
I could have ordinary people chasing me from town to town
Mission Impossible
They've got a spy for every blink of your eye

I'm feeling awkward
I'm feeling tongue tied
They've got a knife for every time you take the same train into work
A family's like a loaded gun
You point it in the wrong direction
someone's gonna get killed

If you had such a dream
Would you get up and do the things you believe in?

Is he your husband?
Or just your boyfriend?
Is he the moron who's been beating you and keeping you inside?
I've never done this kind of thing
But if I kill him now, well who's gonna miss him?

I went up to the school
I took a walk up Castlehill
For every step there is a local boy who wants to be a hero
Do you want to do it now?
Outside the butchers with a knife and a bike chain

If you had such a dream
Would you get up and do the things you believe in?

If you had such a dream
Would you get up and do those things?

If you had such a dream
Would you get up and do those things?

While your head is clear
While your head is clear
While your head is clear
While your head is clear
