Oh, don't get caught in a nightmare, baby
Don't get caught in a vacuum
Don't get caught in a nightmare, baby
Don't go in a squalid room
If you're thinking of shutting it up
Don't do it on a bleak winter's night
If you see a green sleeved man
Don't start spoiling with his red light
You're in a nightmare, you can't get out
You can't control what's happening or what it's about
You're in a nightmare, baby, you can't get out
You can't control what's happening or what it's about
You're in a nightmare
You're in a nightmare
Yeah, yeah, yeah nightmare
You better beware
Oh, horrible faces, they turn with a glare
In an icy dream, well, everything comes clear
You want to wake up but you're inquisitivŠµ
Around the corner, in your dream, will you livŠµ?
The dogs speak in tongues
[?] touch your mouth
You force things to happen
In a dark, dingy house
You're in a nightmare, you can't get out
You can't control what's happening or what it's about
You're in a nightmare, baby, and you can't get out
You can't control what's happening or what it's about
You're in a nightmare
You're in a nightmare
You're in a nightmare
You better beware
Oh, when a table moves across the room in silence
And nightmares are about a poetic licence
You can cut your own head off, yeah, anything goes
Around the corner, in your dream and mind your toes
The sleepwalkers when woken up cause heart attacks
There's nothing for a nightmare when he's got an axe
You're in a nightmare, you can't get out
You can't control what's happening or what it's about
You're in a nightmare, baby, and you can't get out
You can't control what's happening or what it's about
You're in a nightmare
Yeah, yeah, yeah nightmare
Yeah, well, you're in a nightmare
You better beware
