She had a criminal conversation with the devil
On the back seat of a burned out Toyota Camry
She said she finally found a way to start a family
Oh but not one soul could conceive that she was on the level
And the strange thing was she didn't seem to care
He got what he came for and left her to kiss the air
But the baby burned like the human inside her
That inhuman son of a bitch never even called her
Doctors said it'll be some kind of daughter
She dreamed she gave birth to a thousand spiders
Crawled up to her ear and called her mother
And whispered words of wonder from her other love
There there, there there
It'll be alright
It's just a dream
A bad dream baby
It's just a dream
Now the days flew by like petals on a flower
Until the hour she screamed out with a vengeance
Her busy father could not be in attendance
Although he sent his people to the baby shower
And her tiny eyes were brighter than the sun
And shone upon her mother more than anyone
There there, there there
It'll be alright
It's just a dream
It's a bad dream baby
It's just a dream
A bad dream
Now when mother dreams a dark and handsome stranger
A good daughter brings her messages and money
She changes dirt and dust to bread and honey
It's the dowager's reward for filling up the manger
And that little girl who's growing in this world
Well you can tell she'll always be her daddy's girl
You can tell she'll always be her daddy's little girl
It'll be alright
It's just a dream
A bad dream baby
It's just a dream
A bad dream baby
It's just a dream
Well you're a bad dream baby
It's just a dream
Well you're a bad dream baby
It's just a dream
Well you're a bad dream baby
It's just a dream
A bad dream baby
It'll be alright
It's just a dream
It'll be alright
