Rapid Eye Movement

I've ridden zebras on the Serengeti, swam the wildest seas; I've played golf with old Jack Benny -brought Ali to his knees. I've killed zombies in my bedroom, a werewolf on the lawn -fought vampires at the edge of doom before the break of dawn. I've spent the night with Marilyn, had a beer with Gable -watched Astaire's light-footed spin with Ginger on my table. I helped Howard Hughes with all his schemes -sang with Elvis as they screamed, but then, like life, just what it seems -a crazy mixed up old weird dream!
