lyrics

I had a dream it was world war three
And everything was on fire
Helicopters were going around
Looking for something important
Looking for something I had

I ran down the street then
Yeah I ran as fast as fast
I stopped to catch my breath at last
When someone there approached me
Someone there approached

They told me that they heard a rumor
That someone said I was a boomer
I said I don’t know what your talking about
And threw my belongings away
They said what a boomer thing to say

I ran ‘till I came to a water
And I hitched a ride on the ferry
Looking around I saw people in places
All of them hiding there faces
All of them hid there face

I start to ask one a question
Im half finished when they reply
Sorry I’m not that kind of guy
To answer to some type of stranger
To answer to some type of stranger

So I leave the ferry
And I meet a strange looking man
He has orange hair and he has an orange face
And he says he has some type of plan, babe
He says he has some type of plan

I ask him what his plan is
I ask him to please end the war
He says, “If I did that I’d be out of work.”
And he gives me a one dollar bill, Crisp
Says one day his face will be on, this
Instead of whoever this is
