So we were down in Brasil and And that place is wild, we were in Rio de Janeiro And we had this sort of a security guard, tough 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 night fights and You know, the street life of your town He said: sure so we, we pull up to this hooker and She’s wearing some kind of a... A-a bright green mini skirt And it turns out it’s a transexual He says: get over here and she comes over and she thinks she’s busted. But she’s not busted, no she’s not busted He just wanted to smack her in the ass a few times I and say, hey what’s up girl I get out of bed And I clear up my head I don’t want to go But I do it instead We are dreams Within a dream I get into bed And I turn off my head I started to float Was it something she said We are dreams Within a dream So I remember we got our driver’s license And my friend hillel had this little datsun painted green and in Hollywood we 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 were dreaming, you know, we were dreaming And we were talking about what we wanted to do And we were talking about girls and music and You know, hillel wanted to be a rock star I didn’t even know what that was and I was like: Whatever you want to do man, I’m coming with you, I’m right with you my friend I get out of bed And I clear up my head I don’t want to go But I do it instead We are dreams Within a dream I get into bed And I turn off my head I started to float Was it something she said We are dreams Within a dream Why in the world would you want it to be Why would you wanna take it so, so literally All this things that come down from the sky Raining upon your head Make me stop and wonder why Can I just spell it out, make it clear Make it easy to read For the simple man like me? I don’t think so I reached out to my family and I said: It’s not about religion and the God Sitting in the chair in the sky With a punishing hand, no 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 we come now Let me make it easy this time I love you
