Scenes From A Night's Dream Lyrics & Chords By Genesis

Little Nemo
Rubbed his eyes
And got out of bed
Trying hard
To piece together a broken dream
His visions lifelike
And full of imagination
It's strange to think
They came from such a tiny head

Dragons breathing fire
But friendly
Mushrooms tall as houses
Giant Nymphs
And goblins playing
Scenes from a night's dream
Poor Little Nemo!

Eating all kinds of food
So close to bedtime
They always made him
Have these nightmares, it seemed

Helped young Washington in the garden
Cut the cherry tree down
Now we all know
That's not history
Scenes from a night's dream
Poor Little Nemo!

"Nemo, get out of bed!"
"Don't tell me stories
I don't want to know!"
"Come on you sleepy head
We're waiting to go!"

Once he went to
The 'Carnival of Nations'
Dancing with the princess through the night

Found themselves
On a moving platform
Ten ton weights above them
Seeking audience with King Morpheus
Scenes from a night's dream
Poor little Nemo!

"Nemo, get out of bed!"
"Don't tell me stories
I don't want to know!"
"Come on you sleepy head
We're waiting to go!"
