Funny You Should Say That Lyrics

    Lead vocal: the flying pickets

    Well it's funny you should say that
    It's a most peculiar thing
    Yes it's funny you should say that

    I was talking to a man
    And i saw he wore a ring
    Yes it's funny you should say that

    And i told him of a dream
    Where i caught and ate a whale
    Then i woke up feeling hungry, he said
    Thats a curious tale
    For a dream contains a wish
    In this case a giant fish
    As the pressure you were under
    Might have woken you from slumber
    To relieve the pangs of hunger
    You just dreamed yourself a dish

    Well it's funny you should say that
    It's a most peculiar thing
    Yes it's funny you should say that

    For i also met a man
    And he also wore a ring
    Yes it's funny you should say that

    And i told him of a dream
    Where the sun was at its height
    But my toes were blocks of ice, he said
    Let me get this right
    You are tall and so your feet
    Must protrude beyond the sheet
    While you sleep they're unprotected
    And it's just as i suspected
    You were trying to dream some heat

    But there are six white wolves
    In the dead of the night
    On the branch of a tree

    And they have such big eyes
    And they're shining so bright
    All the better to see

    And they have such big ears
    All the better to hear
    And they're listening to me

    And they have such sharp teeth
    All the better to eat
    And they're looking at me

    Well it's funny you should say that
    It's a most peculiar thing
    Yes it's funny you should say that

    I was speaking to a man
    But i don't recall a ring
    Yes it's funny you should say that

    And i told him of a dream
    Where i turned into a snail
    And he said it is simplicity
    To follow such a trail
    For this creature takes his shell
    Anywhere that he may roam

    But work must keep you on the move
    You fear your wife may disapprove
    So in the dream you just remove
    And take along your home

    If i step on a line
    Something will happen
    There are rats in a jar
    Something will happen

    And they have such big eyes
    And they're shining so bright
    All the better to see

    And they have such sharp teeth
    All the better to eat
    And they're looking at me

    Tell me what they say
    Tell me what can they be
    Tell me what does it mean
    Tell me what do you see

    Fantasia
    Nothing is what it seems
    Fantasia
    A world that's made out of dreams
    Fantasia
    Nothing is what it seems
    Fantasia

    Well it's funny you should say that
    It's a most peculiar thing
    Yes it's funny you should say that

    Though i haven't met this man
    So he didn't wear a ring
    It's so funny you should say that

    I told him of a dream
    Where i turned into a hat
    That was round and made of fur, would he say
    Nothing wrong with that
    As i sit here in my chair
    I can see your growth is spare
    And it is my observation
    That this caused you much frustration
    So you dreamed a consolation
    To replace the loss of hair

    I'm going to be a mother
    I'm going to have a child

    There are wolves in the tree
    But the tree never grew
    There are rats in the jar
    But the curse wasn't true

    Fantasia
    Nothing is what it seems
    Fantasia
    A world that is made out of dreams
