"Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me

I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me

In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you

Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship

My senses have been stripped

My hands can't feel to grip

My toes too numb to step

Wait only for my boot heels to be wanderin'"

"When you were little, you dreamed you were big

You must have been something, a real tiny kid

You wish you were me, I wish I was you

Now don't you wake up, the dream will come true

This song is your dream, you're the dream operator"

Lying in the sun

Lovely weather, must climb a tree

To the breeze that's playing

On a thousand violins

And the bees are humming

To a frog sat strumming

On a guitar with only one string"

"Guinevere of the royal court of Arthur

Draped in white velvet, silk and lace.

The rustle of her gown on the marble staircase,

Sparkles on fingers, slender and pale.

The jester he sleeps but the raven he peeps

Through the dark foreboding skies of the royal domain."
