Dreamland - from Zero Down Time

DREAMLAND (Music by Rich Marcil/Lyrics by Peter Preston)

"What, now? Alright. You know, one day I just sat down
and started thinking about all the things that people told me
about my life, and how I have to do something with my life, 
and make something of my life, and how I have to have a life 
and get a life. If it is to be, it is up to me. Que sera sera, 
Whate'er will be will be. I just started thinking about all that
and I got confused and I..."
-
All my life
I had just one dream
Just to be
Just be me
-
"It's like if you're not some sort of a millionaire by now, 
or famous, or rich, or some sort of a movie star or big
rock star, or superstar, or supermodel, or dead from
the bottle, or goin' at it full throttle, it's like you need
to be coddled.  Like you're some kind of loser or something. 
I just...you know, one day I just sat down, I started
thinking about all the things that people told me about 
my life, and how I have to do something with my life
and make something of my life, and that I have to have a
life and get a life. If it is to be, it is to be.
Que sera sera, whate'er will be will be.  I just started 
thinking..."
-
All my life
I had just one dream
Just to be 
Just be me
-
All of us our living our lives
In quiet desperation
With futile aspiration
And fleeting inspiration
But that's just fine
We're all fine
Everything's fine
-
"You know, everybody just wants their guy to get in there 
and get things going and shake things up in there.  And you
can do anything if you just keep your eye on the ball, and
your nose to the grindstone, and your butt in gear, and your
chin up, and a firm upper lip, and your pinkie up when you
drink tea, and neither a borrower nor a lender be. You know,
one day I just sat down, I started thinking about all the
things that people told me about my life, and how I have to do
something with my life, and that I have to have a life and get
a life.  If it is to be, it is up to me.  Que sera sera, whate'er
will be will be."
-
All my life
I had just one dream
Just to be
Just be me
