I just can't believe 
It was all a lie  
No man in the moon  
Just a big light in the sky  
I hear Disneyland  
Might lose Mickey Mouse  
In some giant hostile corporate shake-up  
Tell me it's a nightmare  
Please wake me up  
(Say it isn't so)  
I found a book of matches  
From someplace we've never been  
How come you hang the phone up  
The minute I walk in  
Last night I had this dream  
That I was losing you  
I woke up in a cold sweat shaking  
Rescue me my heart is breaking  

Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)  
Say it isn't so (I believe in you)  
Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)  

Say everything's alright (couldn't be, not you)  
Say it isn't so  

Superman don't fly  
They did it all with strings 
Elvis Presley died  
They deep fried the king  
Like some tacky cheesy bathing beauty  
Dancing on the beach in a bad B-movie  

Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)  
Say it isn't so (I believe in you)  
Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)  
Say everything's alright (couldn't be, not you)  

Say it isn't so (don't give up on me)  
Say it isn't so (don't give up on you)  
Get me through the night (we'll make it through)  
Make everything alright (couldn't be, not you)  
Say it isn't so

Say it isn't so (tell me it's not true)  
Say it isn't so (I believe in you)  
Tell me it's a lie (I don't need no proof)  
Say everything's alright (couldn't be, not you)  

Say it isn't so (don't give up on me)  
Say it isn't so (don't give up on you)  
Get me through the night (we'll make it through)  
Make everything alright (couldn't be, not you)  
Say it isn't so
