[00:00.00]Lord Chancellor's Nightmare Song (2015 Remaster) - Todd Rundgren
[00:08.96]Love unrequited robs me of me rest
[00:16.70]Love hopeless love my ardent soul encumbers
[00:23.75]Love nightmare like lies heavy of me chest
[00:31.11]And weaves itself into my midnight slumbers
[00:47.49]When you're lying awake with a dismal headache and
[00:49.46]Repose is tabood by anxiety
[00:51.43]I conceive you may use any language you choose to
[00:53.17]Indulge in without impropriety;
[00:55.25]For your brain is on fire the bed-clothes conspire of
[00:57.47]Usual slumber to plunder you:
[00:58.98]First your counter-pane goes and uncovers your toes
[01:00.92]And your sheet slips demurely from under you;
[01:03.00]Then the blanketing tickles you feel like mixed
[01:04.86]Pickles so terribly sharp is the pricking
[01:06.66]And you're hot and you're cross and you tumble and
[01:08.64]Toss til there's nothing twixt you and the ticking
[01:10.57]Then the bed-clothes all creep to the ground in a heap
[01:12.67]And you pick them all up in a tangle;
[01:14.43]Next your pillow resigns and politely declines to
[01:16.69]Remain at its usual angle
[01:18.32]Well you get some repose in the form of a dose
[01:20.35]With hot eye-balls and head ever aching
[01:22.20]But your slumbering teems with such horrible dreams
[01:24.10]That you'd very much better be waking;
[01:26.07]For you dream you are crossing the channel and
[01:27.63]Tossing about in a steamer from harwich
[01:29.59]Which is something between a large bathing machine
[01:31.45]And a very small second class carriage
[01:33.54]And you're giving a treat
[01:34.46](penny ice and cold meat) to
[01:35.72]A party of friends and relations
[01:37.23]Theyre a ravenous horde
[01:38.06]And they all come on board
[01:39.02]At sloane square and south kensington stations
[01:40.87]And bound on that journey you find your attorney
[01:42.71](who started this morning from devon);
[01:44.22]Hes a bit undersizd and you don't feel surprisd
[01:46.28]When he tells you hes only eleven
[01:47.69]Well you're driving like mad with this singular lad
[01:49.26](by the bye the ships now a four wheeler)
[01:51.08]And you're playing round games and he calls you bad
[01:52.82]Names when you tell him that ties pay the dealer;
[01:54.58]But this you can't stand so you throw up your hand
[01:56.58]And you find you're as cold as an icicle;
[01:58.12]In your shirt and your socks
[01:59.06](the black silk with gold clocks)
[02:00.41]Crossing salsbury plain on a bicycle:
[02:01.81]And he and the crew are on bicycles too
[02:03.50]Which they've somehow or other invested in
[02:05.17]And he's telling the tars all the particulars of a
[02:07.16]Company he's interested in;
[02:08.93]Its a scheme of devices to get at low prices all
[02:10.84]Good from cough mixtures to cables
[02:12.28](which tickled the sailors) by treating retailers as
[02:14.30]Though they were all vegetables;
[02:15.78]You get a good spadesman to plant a small tradesman
[02:17.67](first take off his boots with a boot tree)
[02:19.46]And his legs will take root
[02:20.52]And his fingers will wshoot
[02:21.41]And they'll blossom and bud like a fruit tree;
[02:23.15]From the green grocer tree
[02:23.93]You get grapes and green pea
[02:24.92]Cauliflower pine apple and cranberries
[02:26.50]While the pastry cook plant cherry brandy will grant
[02:28.46]Apple puffs and three corners and banburys;
[02:30.46]The shares are a penny and ever
[02:31.63]So many are taken by
[02:32.79]Rothschild and baring
[02:34.13]And just as a few are allotted to you
[02:35.90]You awake and with a shudder despairing
[02:41.84]You're a regular wreck with a crick in your neck
[02:43.78]And no wonder you snore for your heads on the floor
[02:45.86]And you've needles and pins from your soles to your
[02:47.44]Shins and your flesh is acreep for your left legs asleep
[02:49.31]And youve cramp in your toes and a fly on your nose
[02:51.44]And some fluff in your lung and a feverish tongue
[02:53.13]And a thirst that's intense
[02:54.12]And a general sense
[02:55.06]That you haven't been sleeping in clover
[02:58.64]But the darkness has passd
[03:00.47]And its daylight at last
[03:02.27]And the night has been long ditto
[03:04.26]Ditto my song
[03:06.69]And thank goodness they're both of them over
