Daydream Believer Lyrics

[00:04.25] Seven-a
[00:06.08] What number is this, Chip?
[00:06.83] Seven-a!
[00:07.46] Okay, know what I mean, don't get excited man
[00:08.65] It's 'cause I'm short, I know
[00:14.49] Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings
[00:18.52] Of the bluebird as she sings
[00:23.16] The six o'clock alarm would never ring
[00:29.77] But six rings and I rise
[00:32.05] Wipe the sleep out of my eyes
[00:38.66] My shavin' razor's cold and it stings
[00:46.10] Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
[00:51.57] Oh, what can it mean
[00:52.73] To a daydream believer
[00:57.00] And a homecoming queen
[01:03.07] You once thought of me
[01:05.95] As a white knight on his steed
[01:10.22] Now you know how happy I can be
[01:13.91] Oh, and our good time starts and end
[01:20.55] Without dollar one to spend
[01:25.31] But how much, baby, do we really need?
[01:33.37] Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
[01:37.21] Oh, what can it mean
[01:40.16] To a daydream believer
[01:44.18] And a homecoming queen
[01:50.69] Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
[01:54.47] Oh, what can it mean
[01:56.90] To a daydream believer
[02:00.73] And a homecoming queen
[02:15.21] Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
[02:18.91] Oh, what can it mean
[02:21.48] To a daydream believer
[02:24.61] And a homecoming queen
[02:32.35] Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
[02:35.85] Oh, what can it mean
[02:38.95] To a daydream believer
[02:42.35] And a homecoming queen
[02:49.48] Cheer up, Sleepy Jean
[02:52.92]
