I first caught the sun at noon today
To get another 24 hours
I lept & broke my bedframe
Which the termites have devoured
I lived a life in shambles
With one idea left to scheme
But if I ever built it
Then what would I have left to dream?
Mulberry's Dream was talkin to me
As we kickin' with time
Burnin' in the sun on the side of the street
We gotta be out of our minds
Life, he said, is all about style
And my flying machine
And we'll take the people cross miracle miles
And I believed him
I walked down to the corner
To fetch myself some dollars
I left later that afternoon
When the streets began to holler
And there I saw O'Farrell
The old street corner pantomime
And I simply could not shake him
Till old Mulberry came just in time
Mulberry's Dream was talkin to me
As we kickin' our time
Burnin' in the sun on the side of the street
We gotta be out of our minds
Life, he said, is all about style
And my flying machine
And we'll take the people cross miracle miles
And I believed him
