Text: Prince. Crystal Ball. Dream Factory.

This is what it's like
In the Dream Factory, oh

Hollyrock ain't all it seems
(Lordy)
Don't get too serious, it's just a dream
Don't forget your friends, they're all you've got
(Lordy)
Listen to the story of a man I am not

Party all night, hangin' out
In the streets more than I be at home
I take a pill to wipe away my doubts
But a pill can't cure my bein' alone

Vodka and 7 straight to my brain
Put me under false impressions
Hide all my pain
Somebody help me, I'm losing control

This is what it's like
In the Dream Factory, oh

Everybody got the big dreams
(Hey lordy)
But nobody got the bucks
Love and trust will help you make it in a world
(Everybody)
Where there ain't no love, ain't no love

Dig, a man came up to me
Smile in his eyes, he told me
I was a saint, so I'm quittin' my friends
Much to their surprise

I can't live up to the picture that they paint
Ah, somebody help me
I'm losing control
(Ow)

I guess I'm just a sucker
In the Dream Factory, oh

Lordy
La, la, la, la, la
(Sucker)
Got to drive

(It's just a dream)
(It's just a dream)
(It's just a dream)
Look out

Do you wanna party?
Do want a pill?
How about a false impression?
(Thrills, spills, chills)

This is what it's like
In the Dream Factory, oh

Ow, yeah
Up a little bit
(Dream Factory, oh)
Party all night, hang up on the side

I said uh
(Do you wanna party?)
I can't make up my mind
(How about a false impression?)

I can't seem to live with no pictures
(Thrills, spills, chills)
Somebody got to help me
(Just a sucker)

I'm losing control
(Just a sucker)
I guess I'm just a sucker
In the Dream Factory, oh

Guess I'm just a sucker
In the Dream Factory, oh
(Just a sucker, motherfucker)
