Lyrics Dry Dreams - The Jim Carroll Band

Dry Dreams

Each night, they surround me With the lights and the microphones.
..
With their bodies and the mile of cable
Like a magic ring of bone
Every night I have the same dream:
A man behind the door
With a tattooed erection
And no reflection
And his eyes like a chinese whore.
..
Every night I have the same dream
(repeat 3 times)
The madonnas at the crossroads,
Dressed like future spies
They shine their lips with android sperm
And the riviera skies.
..
But every night I have the same dream
Its a vision of the dead.
.. the way
They stare into space
And never see a human face.
But just the back of their own heads
Every night I have the same dream
(repeat 3 times)
Earth, water, wind and flame
The designers of my fate.
..
Every night they come to me Release me with their weight.
..
Every night I have the same dream
A dome upon the shore
Where some method actors
Bomb the big reactor
And it melts right through the core
Every night I have the same dream
(repeat 3 times)
Each night, they surround me With the lights and the microphones.
..
With their bodies and the miles of cable
Like a magic ring of bone
Every night I have the same dream
White crows in an empty sky
When I call they descend, the young trees bend
And the dream is always dry.
..
Every night I have the same dream
(repeat 3 times)
