We live and dream about the future
Please ask me out I need to pow-wow now
So through the annals of our flavoured times
Our heroes and all their fader thoughts
Me Marlon Brando Marlon Brando and I sing...
Lay me down down down down
Lay me down down down down down
Help me off to sleep
And take me deep again
We live and dream about our heroes
I listened closely and I said
"I'm not sure where to place myself here friend.
Am I upon the gold rings and stand?"
The winners write the rulebooks the histories and lullabies
Lay me down down down down
Lay me down down down down down
Help me off to sleep
(down down down)
Take me deep again
(down down down)
I have watched you sing
(down down down)
I picture glass wings in your head
(take me down down down)
While golden broads and combines
(down down down)
Or brasses mixed with lead
