Dr Dream

It's not the cough that has you off Lay back relax you'll soon be seen The fever you've fought has to do with your thoughts In today's realities If you're looking for the cure de jour He's got just the thing As you slip into bed he slides into your head A visit from Dr. Dream His prescriptions don't come in a bottle For a pharmacy, there is no need The only pop em if you've got em to bring you back from rock bottom Comes to you in your sleep Stick out your tongue saying ahh sawing logs While the good doctor takes a peek In the back of your mind where nightmares spend their time Examined by Dr. Dream As you toss and you turn in your never-ending search Hoping one day to be free From the thoughts in your head that are best left unsaid Spreading like some dreaded disease You spend the night looking for answers Hoping to find some relief While the good doctors' bedside manners increase the chances A visit from Dr. Dream
