(Nice Dream)
(NICE DREAM) (3:52) Song info
They love me like I was a brother
They protect me, listen to me
They dug me my very own garden
Gave me sunshine, made me happy

Nice dream, nice dream, nice dream

I call up my friend, the good angel
But she's out with her ansaphone
She says she would love to come help but
The sea would electrocute us all

Nice dream (x7)

If you think that you're strong enough
If you think you belong enough
If you think that you're strong enough
If you think you belong enough

Nice dream (x4)

This song revels in a happy-life fantasy, but concludes that it can be nothing more than a "nice dream". Heard at the end of the track are selections from an Arctic-counds tape of John Leckie's. The demo version, available on the compilation Volume 13, is mainly an acoustic number featuring organ and strings. This version also contains the original lyrics of the song. The second verse chronicles a sweet fascination: "I'm a sweet man / Made of chocolate / Your licorice eyes will enrapt me..." While the album version is lyrically superior, this one is still worth a listen. [Radiohead: From a Great Height]
