In My Dreams

Some things in life can affect how you grow
Deeply inspiring the young and the old
Growing up, I watched, wide eyed
Science fiction of any kind
Gothic horror
Villainesses
Heroines

I was the geek who the girls didn't know
Too much inside me I just couldn't show
So I'd drift to sleep at night
Escaping to the fantasy life
I replaced
Reality
With ecstasy

In my dreams, Barbarella comes Sunday
Then Selene and Elvira on Monday
Lara Croft, Baroness bringing sexy back
My God!
Sweet Persephone! A heart attack!
Fantasies making every day 'fun day'
Black Widow or a Harley Quinn 'stun day'
Aeon Flux, Barb Wire, Sil and Catwoman
Maleficent, Nancy Callahan
Shake me, don't wake me
Seven of Nine is on

Through every schoolyard, a cruel wind would blow
All the approachable girls would say no
I was awkward, way too shy
Ten years old going on thirty five!
So I'd race back home
And simply wait to sleep

In my dreams, Barbarella comes Sunday
Then Selene and Elvira on Monday
Lara Croft, Baroness bringing sexy back
My God!
Sweet Persephone! A heart attack!
Fantasies making every day 'fun day'
Black Widow or a Harley Quinn 'stun day'
Aeon Flux, Barb Wire, Sil and Catwoman
Maleficent, Nancy Callahan
Shake me, don't wake me
Till Daisy Duke is done

In my dreams, Barbarella comes Sunday
Then Selene and Elvira on Monday
Lara Croft, Baroness bringing sexy back
My God!
Sweet Persephone! A heart attack!
Fantasies making every day 'fun day'
Black Widow or a Harley Quinn 'stun day'
Aeon Flux, Barb Wire, Sil and Catwoman
Maleficent, Nancy Callahan
Cruisin', I'm usin'
My 'Jessie Rabbit Gun'

In my dreams, Barbarella comes Sunday
Then Selene and Elvira on Monday
Lara Croft, Baroness bringing sexy back
My God!
Sweet Persephone! A heart attack!
Fantasies making every day 'fun day'
Black Widow or a Harley Quinn 'stun day'
Aeon Flux, Barb Wire, Sil and Catwoman
Maleficent, Nancy Callahan
Shake me, don't wake me
Not while my freak is on
