Lyrics

[Verse 1] One night when I was sleeping A gypsy woman sneak into my head And she said 'I've got a bottle of schnapps Lets get to know each other drinking A belly full of laughs And some thoughts that beyond thinking Let's play a game of those cards my friend Because tonight I'm going to show you How the night it never never never end [Chorus] Morning is one thousand dreams away And our expedition Telling us to stay So stay we will we've got that gypsy lady Perched upon our bow And the empire ship be heading Where the wild ones they are now Oh how the gods look down And frown at those who never stood and said 'My name is no-one' And went a little mad (and went a little mad) [Verse 2] And from time to time She sneaks back inside me and she say 'lucky sing the secrets that I taught you always' Replied 'as long as I am living, I never forget' That the sun is never rising and it never set So let's make some fire and smoke and then We'll go exploring in the night That never never never end [Chorus] Morning is one thousand dreams away And our expedition Telling us to stay So stay we will we've got that gypsy lady Perched upon our bow And the empire ship be heading Where the wild ones they are now Oh how the gods look down And frown at those who never stood and said 'My name is no-one' And went a little mad (and went a little mad) [Verse 3] I've got a tingle in my back And something sparking in my toes I get the shivers through my body When that trumpet blows And while asleep I am awake And while awake I am dreaming Before I start to think I am scheming (To start a party tonight my friends) Because the woman, in my head She said tonight, it's never, never, gonna end [EXTENSION] I went to my friends 'Cause I found a fine beat Oh, I like to play a rhythm Where the rhythm plays me Play it all day on a balcony above the street Where ol' Frankie and me, we shuffle with our feet When old man Georgie takes the sugar with his tea When he's stirred by a melody of hands movin' easy See it reminds him of dreams by the sea Where the breeze blows underneath that island tree So we played 'til the playing gave us the munchies Then we played in the kitchen, made the easy gods happy 'Cause we left them a little chili special And some chocolate we eat because its sweet (sweet!) When I leave I am smilin' at the things I haven't done I haven't broke a sweat, and I haven't had to run For the list of one thousand and one that does plague me Some days where the sun rays don't come, singin' Parking inspector Just made my list of one thousand, one thousand and one But ah parking inspector, won't let you wreck my fun When I get to my car, I am faced with a sight That is strange, and it's sad, and it's mad, it's not right It's one thousand and one spaces free but I see That he fined me guilty of a time over fee Now I know why my mother, why my mother warned me Said you might be lucky, but know nothing comes for free She's right, entirely 'Cause the ticket payed the song that I'll sing to this beat Oh, parking inspector Just made my list of one thousand, one thousand and one But ah parking inspector, won't let you wreck my fun 'Cause when I pay for my ticket I won't curse and despise No I run into the girl with the slinky blue eyes And my list of one thousand and one will remain Had plans to get it done but now my plans, they have changed, oh (Parking inspector) Parking inspector Parking inspector Just made my list of one thousand grow a little more But ah parking inspector, you won't believe what I saw! Oh, on the back of the ticket with invisible type Was a map to the place with one thousand delights And a key that was one to that spot by the sea Where the breeze blows underneath that island tree
