You're gonna get hurt
You're using it up just scratching in the dirt
You're gonna get shucked
You starry-eyed little shrimp
For peddlin' dreams, peddlin' dreams
Peddlin' dreams, like a pimp, peddlin' dreams
You're peddlin' dreams, givin' 'em out like candy
For rotting your teeth, leavin' you stranded
Don't look at the girl with the gold in her cheeks
She's an oasis of places that you'll never see
A pitch for the angel, before we die
A kiss to the strangers who barely get by
There's never a moon when you need the hope
To punch through the night and point the way home
Don't you believe another talking chimp
Is peddlin' dreams, peddlin' dreams
Peddlin' dreams, like a pimp, peddlin' dreams
Don't look at the girl with the gold in her cheeks
She's peddlin' dreams, peddlin' dreams, peddlin' dreams
You're using it up just scratching in the dirt
You're gonna get shucked
You starry-eyed little shrimp
For peddlin' dreams, peddlin' dreams
Peddlin' dreams, like a pimp, peddlin' dreams
You're peddlin' dreams, givin' 'em out like candy
For rotting your teeth, leavin' you stranded
Don't look at the girl with the gold in her cheeks
She's an oasis of places that you'll never see
A pitch for the angel, before we die
A kiss to the strangers who barely get by
There's never a moon when you need the hope
To punch through the night and point the way home
Don't you believe another talking chimp
Is peddlin' dreams, peddlin' dreams
Peddlin' dreams, like a pimp, peddlin' dreams
Don't look at the girl with the gold in her cheeks
She's peddlin' dreams, peddlin' dreams, peddlin' dreams
