Songtexte Almost Perfect - The Residents

In her favorite dream
Every cop's a queen
In his favorite dream
Every cop's a king
I live a life of solitary sweetness
It's a life that's simple and clean
All I really wanna do is please them
All I ask is stay in the dream
All I ask is stay in the dream
All I ask is stay inside my dream
What's your favorite dream?
I make them see me the way they want me to be
Some people like cruel lovers, some like giving lovers
Some like submissive, some like strong
The diversity of desire is endless
(I live a life of solitary sweetness)
The beauty of it, the exquisite beauty is the world I create
(It's a life that's simple and clean)
It's a perfect thing, that world
(All I really wanna do is please them)
A magic place, a special place, a just the two of us place
(All I ask is stay in the dream)
Sometimes it feels like it could go on forever
But it never does
(All I ask is stay in the dream)
No matter what they say in the beginning
No matter how much they love their husbands
(All I ask is stay inside my dream)
Or their boyfriends, or their wives, or kids, or whatever
They eventually want more
More than I could give
More than they should have
And it's over
It's over
No, they never stay inside the dream
(Over, over, over, over)
No, they never stay inside the dream
(Over, over, over, over)
They never, never stay inside the dream
(Over, over, over)
Oh, they never stay inside my dream
