lyrics

What are the words to the song I wrote?
The other night I dreamt I heard the lot
I still felt them on my tongue
The words were rather young
They had not begun to make sense
To us all in the English speaking world
Oh baby, English speaking world

What was the music to the song I wrote?
The other night I dreamt I heard a note
There was a string beneath my thumb
The tune was old and young
And the words had not begun to make sense
To use all in the English speaking world
Oh, baby, English speaking boys and girls

Got to get in to get out
Baby Oh
You go to get in to get out (put delay)

What was the reason for the song I wrote?
The other night I kissed your throat
To taste you on my tongue
The songs are rather young
And the words have not begun to make sense
To us all in the English speaking world
Oh baby, English speaking world

What was the meaning of the song I wrote?
The other night a dreamt I heard a quote
And a song bite on my tongue
The songs are rather young
The words have not begun to make sense
To us all in the English speaking world
Oh baby, English speaking boys and girls Oh

You got to get in to get out
Oh baby yeah
Got to get in to get out
Do do do

Where is the money for the songs I wrote?
The other night I dreamt I heard a quote
I had a feeling on my tongue
Songs were old and young
The words have just begun to make sense
To use all in the English speaking world
Oh baby, in the English-speaking world

….You got to get in to get out
Oh baby yeah
Got to get in to get out
