Dreaming From The Waist Lyrics

 (Townshend)
 
 
 I feel like I want to break out of the house
 My heart is pumping, I've got sin in my mouth
 I feel like I'm heading up to a cardiac arrest
 I want to scream in the night, I want a manifest
 
 I've got that wide awake, give-and-take, five o'clock-in-the-morning feeling
 I got the hots for the sluts in the well found pages of the magazines
 I want to drive, want to fly like I do in the dreams I've never really been in
 I want to hump, want to jump, want to heat up, cool down in a dream machine
 
 I'm dreaming ... from the waist on down
 I'm dreaming ... but I feel tired and bound
 I'm dreaming ... of a day when a cold shower helps my health
 I'm dreaming ... dreaming - of the day I can control myself
 Day I can control myself
 
 Sound like a priest and then I'm shooting dice
 I'm burning tires with some guy whose hair is turning white
 I know the girls that I pass, they just ain't impressed
 I'm too old to give up, but too young to rest
 
 I've got that numb-to-a-thumb over-dubbed
 Feeling social when the world is sleeping
 The plot starts to thicken then I sicken and I feel I'm cemented down
 I'm so juiced at the bar
 And a lady's sad sad story has me quietly weeping
 But here comes the morning
 Here comes the yawning demented clown
 
 I'm dreaming ... but I know it's all hot air
 I'm dreaming ... I'll get back to that rocking chair
 I'm dreaming ... of the day I can share the wealth
 I'm dreaming ... dreaming - of the day I can control myself
 Day I can control myself
 Hey, hey!
 The day I can control myself
