Standard (EADGBE)

I like nightmares

I like being witless

One for the news flash

Cool eyewitness

Eighty-one, eighty-two, eighty-three, it's happening

Gotta be a fucking fool to blame TV

Don't get trapped in

If you're lucky, be the same as me

I like nightmares

Yes, I do

There's a simple way to die they call it news

There's a simple way to fly they call it booze

There's an easy quiet escape, just sleep and cruise

It's justifiable rape, they say you choose

And I like nightmares

I like feeling cheekless {?}

Lifting up my lighter {?}

Watching life with west {?}

'81, '82, '83, it's happening

Can we afford strike three

Don't trust the captain

He's just a boy like me

And I like nightmares, yes, I do

There's a common way to weep, they say just smoke

You can cry yourself to sleep, they say just toke

There's a path that never fails, you can't get lost

Don't need roads, you're on rails, I'll pay the cost

And I like nightmares, yes, I do

We were wasted, but you're only waylaid once

What we tasted was a voucher, pay their lunch

We robbed their banks and we took their gold

And our lies in the tank must've sounded old

But we pleaded

I said, "You're honor were not chumps, after all, we only did it once."

We like nightmares

We taste our fitness

All kind of goulash

A taint in the midwest

'81, '82, '83, it's happening

Nothing votes interest free

Don't care what it's wrapped in

You can be abreast like me

And I like nightmares

Yes, I do

I like nightmares
