Lyrics
Let your imagination lay down and take a rest
I'll do my best to do the rest, hmmm hmmm
You can only save the world but once or twice a week
When angels and alibis are steppin' on your feet
So let's make for the country, head for the coast
The boldness of bold fools is the road I travel most
Lately I've been living crazy
Stammered, stoned or just plain lazy
Lady maybe someday we'll play it straight, but let's just wait
There's a great and unsung army flying green with the hummingbird
Fighting for existence with the flight of every word
Dreamers don't need deadlines, don't need jet airlines to fly
When angels and alibis are walking by their side
So let's make for the country, head for the coast
The boldness of bold fools is the road I travel most
Lately I've been living crazy
Stammered, stoned or just plain lazy
Lady maybe someday we'll play it straight, but let's just wait
Let your imagination lay down and take a rest
I'll do my best to do the rest, hmmm hmmm
You can only save the world but once or twice a week
When angels and alibis are steppin' on your feet
Lately I've been living crazy
Stammered, stoned or just plain lazy
Lady maybe someday we'll play it straight, but let's just wait
