Thugs and badmen Punks and lifers Fucked up interns Pigs and snitches Rest your weary heads, all is well You won't be strip-searched, torn up tonight You won't be cut up, bleeding tonight You won't be strung out, cold, shaking to your bones Wishing you were anywhere else but right here So dream on Thieves and muggers Tricks and hustlers Cheats and traitors Scum and low-lives Rest your weary heads, all is well You won't be sad or broken tonight You won't be squealed on, ripped up tonight You won't be back-stabbed, double cross, face down Teeth knocked out, lying in a gutter somewhere So dream on Freaks and junkies Fakes and phonies Drunks and cowards Manic preachers Rest your weary heads, all is well You won't be pushed or messed with tonight You won't be lied to, ruffed up tonight You won't be insane, paranoid, obsessed Aimlessly wandering through the dark night So dream on
