[Refrain: Shara Nelson & 3D]

I quietly observe, standing in my space

Yes, Daddy

Daydreaming

Massive, Massive, Massive

I quietly observe standing in my space

Daydreaming

[Verse 1: 3D, Tricky & Daddy G]

Way that we say 'em in style that we writ 'em in

Massive Attack, we keep it strong just like a vitamin

Going for the positive, wiping out the negative songs

'Cause, brother, it's relative

The passer's picking up all the lyrics on the dance floor

That raise your spirit level 'cause it demands for

Attitude is cool, degrees below zero

Up against the wall, behaving like De Niro

Tricky's performing, taking his phono

Making a stand with a tan, touch it like cocoa

Smooth to keep you moving at the back now

Free is the needle, it's moving through the track now

Dance to the drummer's beats, we need new sticks

Bounce around the vibes like acoustics

No drugs or pharmaceuticals, for the body, ain't suitable

Stick with liquid, me and Trick, we drop

A paper which you use my tongue to lick with

Trouble and strife ain't no sunshine in my life

Wiseguys get protection when they carry a knife

They shouldn't have been born, they're making me yawn

But I just take it easy, it's a Sunday morn'

So, you come on light my fire and

Together we'll grow forever, watch my Akai rig go

Because my Akai rig goes boom, boom

My Akai rig goes boom

Yeah, rhymin' the jam and, uh, we got the stamina

In case you never know us if we don't give a damn and uh

And it's hard to handle, keep your distance

Resist and the posse gets the pleasure of this dance

The cool breeze that you welcome in the heat

You don't see it but you feel it when it's blowing on the street

If I was a rich man

Da da dada

I quietly observe, standing in my space

It's the devious days they call the rat race

It's a concrete jungle, evil in the town

Weebles, wobble, occasional squabble

But what happen when the bomb drops Down

Don't make sound, yes

'Cause the dance floor's a desert and the dancers are parched

Do a rain dance and your brain's still marsh

My heavy, my brother get lighter than helium

Float above the world to break the tedium

Living in my headphones, Sony's what I say to 'em

The surreal boom of the Budokan stadium

[Refrain: Shara Nelson]

Well, I'm floating on air when I'm daydreaming

I quietly observe standing in my space

[Verse 2: 3D & Tricky]

Well, I'm tricky, kid, don't deal with sadness

Can't be with the one I love, I love the one that I miss

I'm very down to earth but brain sits on top floor

Don't need another lover just need, I'm insecure

The weather is a-changin', the storms be shakin'

The love that you take is equal to the love you're makin'

Here comes the sun little darlin here comes the sun (It's alright)

Yes, tricky kid, I check my situation

Maggie this, Maggie that, Maggie means inflation

Hip-hop, you don't stop, 'cause I'm not sloppy

I like the beat so we need another copy

We're natives of the massive territory and we're proud

Get peaceful in the dance, adapt the glory and the crowd

The problem ain't a different kind of skin tricks

I love my neighbor, I don't wait for the olympics

See you go hooligan, you're trying to play the fool again

Caught you in the lost and found

When your posse weren't around

No craft

So, you're going for you tool again

[Refrain: Shara Nelson]

Daydreaming

I quietly observe standing in my space

Daydreaming

Well I'm floating on air when I'm daydreaming
