I had a dream and it came true
And I know a thing or two
I'm not complaining cause I'm still dreaming
Are answered prayers good for me?
Are such answered prayers what I need?

Sold the breadline for a deadline
News of the World
Hold the headline, pull out the punchline
People need to be told

Do Hollywood wives have happier lives than anybody?
Do leaders of men feel better when they're on TV?

Happy when I had what I had wasn't bad
I bought it all, I got the luck
Where does it leave me?

Well, I know a thing or two
No point complaining when it's not raining
Are answered prayers good for me?
Are answered prayers what I need?

Sold the breadline for a deadline
News of the World
Hold the front page - this is an outrage
People need to be told

Do Hollywood wives lead happier lives than anybody?
Do leaders of men feel better when they're on TV?
