Instead of the familiar words...."Row, row, row your boat......"
Dream, dream, dream away,
Astronomic'ly!
Warily, warily, warily, warily
Face reality!

Oh, NOW I'm beginning to feel like a bird!
'Cause I've been deceived by so many cheap words!
Imagination by them's taken great flight.....
My dreams astronomic'ly soared out of sight!!!
.....Yet now I am sitting forlorn on a branch,
Contemplating how mis'rably ev'rything's crashed.
Cheap! Cheep! Cheap!

Reality is cruel. Keep on dreaming.
You made me laugh out loud! Oh so true! And, ah, I do....dream, and dream, and dream.....maybe someday I will grow out of it,....just haven't yet.
I hope not, a good dose of dreaming keeps us all from going crazy, I think.
A fun/novel way of looking at something so sad.
Thanks for that! It is a funny but too realistic simile of it, y'know?
