Dreamland’s Is Burning (Slater) ©2006 BMI
The show is over
The curtain has fallen
The sun has set, that's all she wrote
Fat lady sang, our work here is done
Heard someone say “That’s a helluva note…”
Now Dreamland’s burning down
The flames lit up the sky for miles around
The roller coaster’s coasted out of town
And Dreamland lies in pieces on the ground
Move along, nothing more to see, beat it, turn the page
Hit the road, turn out the lights, time's up, get off the stage
Now Dreamland’s burning down
Hot ashes in the sir and on the ground
The roller coaster’s coasted out of town
And Dreamland lies in pieces on the ground
Hear the people laughing as if it was a dream
Hear the people laughing or was that just a scream?
Don't let the screen door hit you where the good Lord split you
That's all there is ain’t it clear?
You don't have to go home BUT YOU CAN’T STAY HERE!
Now Dreamland’s burning down
Hot ashes in the air and on the ground
The smoke and cinders fell as far as Long Island Sound
And Dreamland
lies in pieces
on the
ground!
