Dreaming From The Waist

<br>(Townshend)<br><br><br> I feel like I want to break out of the house<br> My heart is pumping, I`ve got sin in my mouth<br> I feel like I`m heading up to a cardiac arrest<br> I want to scream in the night, I want a manifest<br><br> I`ve got that wide awake, give-and-take, five o`clock-in-the-morning feeling<br> I got the hots for the sluts in the well found pages of the magazines<br> I want to drive, want to fly like I do in the dreams I`ve never really been in<br> I want to hump, want to jump, want to heat up, cool down in a dream machine<br><br> I`m dreaming ... from the waist on down<br> I`m dreaming ... but I feel tired and bound<br> I`m dreaming ... of a day when a cold shower helps my health<br> I`m dreaming ... dreaming - of the day I can control myself<br> Day I can control myself<br><br> Sound like a priest and then I`m shooting dice<br> I`m burning tires with some guy whose hair is turning white<br> I know the girls that I pass, they just ain`t impressed<br> I`m too old to give up, but too young to rest<br><br> I`ve got that numb-to-a-thumb over-dubbed<br> Feeling social when the world is sleeping<br> The plot starts to thicken then I sicken and I feel I`m cemented down<br> I`m so juiced at the bar<br> And a lady`s sad sad story has me quietly weeping<br> But here comes the morning<br> Here comes the yawning demented clown<br><br> I`m dreaming ... but I know it`s all hot air<br> I`m dreaming ... I`ll get back to that rocking chair<br> I`m dreaming ... of the day I can share the wealth<br> I`m dreaming ... dreaming - of the day I can control myself<br> Day I can control myself<br> Hey, hey!<br> The day I can control myself
