Lyrics Cricket - Clifford T. Ward

Cricket

Dreams are funny aren’t they?
Last night I dreamt that World War three had been declared
The BBC gave it out
An' then they gave the cricket score
England were all out for seventy-one
And the West Indies had made 'em bat on
Dreams are funny aren’t they?
Last night I dreamt that the end of the world had come
The BBC gave it out
An' then they gave the cricket score
England were all out for nil
And the West Indies had made 'em bat on
Dreams are funny aren’t they?
Last night I dreamt that America had made the UK the 52nd
Or is it the 53rd state? — oh I don’t know
The BBC gave it out
An' then they gave the cricket score
England were all out for fifty-one
And the West Indies had made 'em bat on (and on)
Dreams are funny aren’t they? Ah they’re hilarious
Last night I dreamt that Labour had won the election
The BBC gave it out
An' then they gave the cricket score
The West Indies were all out for a hundred and thirty four
An' our England sighed with relief
Dreams are funny aren’t they?
Dreams are funny aren’t they?
Dreams are funny aren’t they?
