Cold sweat scream

Cold Sweat Scream

(Chorus)

I been sleeping on a rich woman's pillow

I been sleeping in a rich man's bed

I been sleeping on a rich woman's pillow

And in my dreams that pillow said

She said, "Why do you always fuss and fight?"

I said, "We ain't got that long"

She said, "Shut up and talk! We got all night"

When you turn on the light to your memory

Can you tell me just what do you see?

When you push back the cobwebs

And fish out the mothballs

Are you still surprised to see me?

I'm the postcard and shot glass from Texas

I'm the wine stain that never came clean

Or a phone number left in a wad in your pocket

Dried and crumbled from the washing machine

(Chorus)

When you turn out the lights in the evening

Can you tell me just what do you dream?

When you let go of all of your conscious defenses

Are your unconscious visions of me?

Do I ride in, in Godiva splendor?

Do I waltz in and steal all your steam?

Do I crouch in a corner of your bedroom laughing?

When you wake in that cold-sweat scream?
