So once I had a little house in the country babe In the country I was living in the country with you And the man in the corner had a funny little hat And he wore little buttons all down his back And little did he know when he really had to go And give it the neighbour's cat, to the neighbour's cat And the neighbour's cow had a funny little hat all day
Oh-oh, be careful what you wish for Because it might come true Oh-oh, be careful what you dream for Because it's staring back at you It's staring back at you
And he marched to the beat of the sugerplum fairy drums With the fairy drums or the sugerplums were marching too To the rhythm of the rhythm of a tap-a-tap-tap And he built the man in the baseball cap And no one could tell just quite where he fell Cause he fell down a pavement crack, down a pavement crack
And the pavement crack went in to hell and back
Oh-oh, be careful what you wish for Because it might come true Oh-oh, be careful what you dream of Because it's staring back at you Because it's staring back at you
Well I play guitar and you play guitar And you play guitar and I play guitar And I play guitar and you play guitar And you play guitar and I play harmonica
Oh-oh, be careful what you wish for Because it might come true Hey-yeah, be careful what you dream of Because it's staring back at you Because it's staring back at you

Woah-oh, be careful what you wish for Because it might come true Because it might No-oh, be careful what you dream of Because it's staring back at you It's staring back at you
