Sweet Dreams Too
Music and Lyrics by Gary Powell
PROLOGUE
If I were brown and furry?
Would I wonder and I worry?
Am I be a bear or not?
Would I sleep every night?
Would I dream without fright?
Am I a bear or what?
CHORUS
So, I wonder, I wish, and I wonder again
Just what kind of bear I might be
Am I woodsy or stuffed?
Do I huff and I puff?
No, I don’t have the right kind of teeth
I wonder, I wish, and I wonder again
Just what about me might be true?
Hey, maybe my fate is to hibernate
Napping the whole winter through!
VERSE 1
This snoozing and sleeping and snoozing again
I’ve done it since I was a tot
And maybe it’s lazy or sounds kind of crazy
But I’d rather eat honey from my honey pot
Then slower, not faster, my mind’s winding down
With pictures of my favorite things
Singing “Cottleston Pie†seeing Eeyore’s big smile
And the joy that my honey-hunt brings
CHORUS
I wonder, I wish, and I wonder again
Just what about me might be true?
Hey, maybe my fate is to hibernate
Napping the whole winter through!
VERSE 2
Singing too-rah-la-la-rah-too, backwards what’s that?
My little brain does it again
I won’t make a peep. What’s that? Jumping sheep?
My eyes are as heavy as they’ve even been.
Scrub-a-dub-dub, a yawn in a tub
Who’s thinking up all of these schemes?
My night cap is on, so who’s singing this song?
I think it is you, have sweet dreams
(Chorus)
TAG
It must not be me, I’m horizontal you see
I think it is you, have sweet dreams
I’m dreaming of you,
(Spoken) “Feeling sleepy yet? May you have….â€
Sweet dreams too
