Select language to translate this lyric
He dreams that he is eating but he never eats a thing
He dreams that he is working he dreams that he does sing
But if you ever ask him there are no ifs and buts
The best dream that heâs ever had is that he did wake up
He dreams he is a hero he dreams heâs saved a life
He dreams heâs got a big house and a beautiful wife
But if you ever ask him there are no ifs and buts
The best dream that heâs ever had is that he did wake up
He dreams heâs got a country of which he is the king
That on his neck and on his wrist the diamonds they cling
But if you ever ask him there are no ifs and buts
The best dream that heâs ever had is that he did wake up
He didnât wake up!
