"The Dictator Decides"

[Verse 1]
Will someone please say the unsayable?
Will someone please tell me I'm wrong?
I live every day
Like a sad beast of prey
For I have to appear to be strong
And that’s wrong
I’m too weak to be strong

[Verse 2]
Today I met with the generals
And the head of my secret police
Discussing conspiracies
And prison facilities
For opponents I can never release
And there’ll be no peace
Until they’re released

[Verse 3]
Of course I'm in league with the army
It's not like I've got any choice
They officially adore me
And my father before me
But gunpoint has a firm voice
[Verse 4]
The joke is I'm not even a demagogue
Have you heard me giving a speech?
My facts are invented
I sound quite demented
So deluded it beggars belief
It would be such a relief
Not to give another speech

[Verse 5]
Will someone please say the impossible?
Crowds should be out on the street
I've lost any will
To threaten and kill
I'll be easy for you to defeat
And at any resistance I meet
I’ll beat a retreat

[Verse 6]
I'd rather that you didn't shoot me
But I'd quite understand if you did
Watch out for the army
The generals'll go barmy
At the thought of a takeover bid

[Verse 7]
Oh please will somebody put me
Out of my misery?
This sad old dictator
Must sooner or later
Flee so that you can be free
If you get rid of me
We can all be free
[Instrumental Outro]

"Inside a Dream"

[Intro]
"The land of dreams
Is better far
Above the light
Of the morning star"

[Interlude]

[Verse 1]
Taking a ride inside a dream
Living a world I've never seen
Wishes come true that should have been
Looks familiar, feels obscene

[Refrain]
Inside a dream
Inside a dream
Inside a dream
Inside a dream
Inside a dream
Inside a dream
Inside a dream
[Chorus]
"The land of dreams
Is better far
Above the light
Of the morning star"

"The land of dreams
Is better far
Above the light
Of the morning star"

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Driving along a song will play
Something I only heard today
A new melody with such delay
The music will never fade away

[Chorus]
"The land of dreams
Is better far
Above the light
Of the morning star"

"The land of dreams
Is better far..."
