It's a beautiful world and a beautiful dream
And you know I don't care if things are not what they seem
Makin' up stories that you know aren't true
But you know it's all right 'cause I know it too

Who is the lady with the snow cone eyes?
Who has the candy with the soft insides?
Talk show religion and soap opera love
Whatever happened to Heavens above?

Well you can lie to me and I imagine you do
If nothing's right what's wrong?
That what I like about you
That what I like about you

Birds are flying from east to west
Dogs are runnin' a political race
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder who you are

Well you can lie to me and I imagine you do
If nothing's right what's wrong?
That's what I like about you
That's what I like about you

It's a beautiful world and a beautiful dream
And you know I don't care, things are not what they seem
I wanna be happy I can't stand the pain
I wanna believe so tell me again

I'm like a chicken without a head
I'd like to fly but I walk instead
Emotional junkies, how blind we must be
I'm just a fool for your Las Vegas tears

Well you can lie to me and I imagine you do
If nothing's right what's wrong?
That's what I like about you
That's what I like about you, who!
That's what I like about you, who!
That's what I like about you
