The Reoccurring Dream - Joni Mitchell

    This is the reoccurring dream
    Born in the dreary gap between
    What we have now
    And what we wish we could have
    More fulfilling--and less frustrating!
    Out of the envy in our eyes
    Look!
    Glamorous picture people rise
    Radiant!
    Gleaming down from screens and pages
    Ooh--glamour--before your very eyes!
    Isn't it true--isn't it true?
    Good question--I know--who cares
    Look here they tell you
    If you had this
    If you had that
    Latest styles and colors
    If we had that for us mmmmm
    Wouldn't it be fabulous
    If you had that house, car, bottle, jar
    Your lovers would look like movie stars
    Movie stars, movie stars, movie stars
    Order your youth secrets of the stars
    Call now--just $9.99

    Our discontent is their delight
    They offer relief for the purchase price
    Love in a bottle
    Love on four wheels
    Is that our new car Charles?
    Isn't it true--isn't it true?
    We guarantee it--pick up your phone and dial
    See here they sell you
    If you had this
    If you had that
    I want a new truck!--More power!
    If you use this shampoo
    True love will come to you
    If you had that house, car, bottle, jar
    Your lovers would look like movie stars
    Movie stars, movie stars, movie stars
    Hollywood's greatest legends

    Dreamer
    I'm afraid I can't go below two million
    Dream on
    Life would be easy if I had that new appliance
    Food processors for all of us
    Who cares!

    Recognize this?
    Dreamer
    There are lots of strings
    Dream on
    We can solve everything in science
    Naturally
    Science
    It's a picture of how to get what you want out of life

    Recognize this?
    I love it
    Dreamer
    Isn't there some other way?
    Who cares!
