CUE: …but wherever Alan went the suitcase was sure to go…
WHEN WAR IS DECLARED
NOBODY IS SPARED…
WHEN IT CALLS YOU OUT
BE LIKE THE BOY SCOUT WHO’S ALWAYS PREPARED…!
WHEN A DRAG QUEEN MARCHES TO A WAR ZONE
SHE’LL NEED SOMETHING MORE ON,
KHAKI’S SUCH A BORE ON!
WAR NEED NOT BE VOID OF LOVE AND BEAUTY,
SHE MUST DO HER DUTY NOW!
WHILE OUT ON A BEACH
OR OFF ON A CRUISE
SHE MAY PACK A GUN
BUT HER WAR IS WON
IN HER HIGH HEEL SHOES!
WAR’S A BORE, FATIGUES ARE SO FATIGUING,
WAR IS MORE INTRIGUING NOW!
IN HER CAMAFLAGE
SHE’LL FACE THE BARRAGE,
BUT UNDER HER PANTS
SHE’S DRESSED UP TO DANCE
SOME PART IN LA CAGE!
WHEN SHE GOES INTO HER PIROUETTES
BEWARE HER BAYONETS AND HOW!
CUE: …but never was there a whimper from him because he knew at the end of it all he would at last be that which he had always dreamed…
LIFE DOESN’T ALWAYS TURN OUT THE WAY IT SHOULD,
YOU GIVE IT YOUR BEST AND STILL YOU’RE MISUNDERSTOOD,
IS IT JUST FATE OR IS IT YOUR LUCK’S NO GOOD?
YOU’D GIVE UP THE WHOLE DAMN THING IF YOU ONLY COULD!
BUT ONE FATAL DAY A DREAM CAME INTO MY HEART,
I FELL FOR THAT DREAM, THAT DREAM WAS A WORK OF ART,
I MARRIED THAT DREAM THOUGH MAYBE THAT WASN’T SMART,
STILL, NOTHING CAN BREAK THAT DREAM AND MYSELF APART…!
EVERYONE HAS A DREAM,
I’VE GOTTA’ MAKE MINE COME TRUE!
HOPELESS THOUGH IT MAY SEEM,
FOOLISH PERHAPS AND DUMB TOO!
I’VE HELD IT IN SO LONG
I GOTTA’ LET IT OUT NOW,
I’M HERE TO TELL YOU
STEP UP AND SELL YOU
ON WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT NOW!
EVERYONE HAS A DREAM,
MINE’S IN MY BONE AND MUSCLE,
FLOWING THROUGH MY BLOODSTREAM,
IN EVERY RED CORPUSCLE!
I HAVE A NEED SO STRONG,
SEEMS I CAN ALMOST TASTE IT,
THOUGH THEY HAVE WARNED ME,
PUT DOWN AND SCORNED ME
NOTHING HAS YET ERASED IT!
EVERYONE HAS A DREAM,
MINE HAS TO BREATHE AND LIVE TOO,
NOTHING IS TOO EXTREME
WHEN YOU’VE A DREAM TO GIVE TO!
ALL THAT I’VE GOT NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES!
I’VE GOT THE DREAM, NOW ALL THAT I NEED’S THE BREAKS!
SO, I’M READY FOR WHATEVER TOMORROW BRINGS,
I’LL TAKE THE WORST OR I’LL TAKE THE BEST OF THINGS,
LEAVES HAVE TO FALL IF THERE’S TO BE HOPE FOR SPRINGS,
AND NOBODY ELSE BUT ME’S GONNA’ PULL THE STRINGS…
EVERYONE HAS A DREAM,
MINE’S GOT TO BREATHE AND LIVE TOO,
NOTHING IS TOO EXTREME
WHEN YOU’VE A DREAM TO GIVE TO…
ALL THAT I’VE GOT NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES…
I’VE GOT THE DREAM, NOW ALL THAT I NEED’S THE BREAKS!
I’VE GOT THE DREAM, NOW ALL THAT I NEED’S THE BREAKS!
I’VE GOT THE DREAM, NOW ALL THAT I NEED’S THE BREAKS!
