lyrics

Oh I see you walking gracefully, to the land where freedom rings
but I see you talking faithfully, to the one you call your king
oh where is this land that you speak of
and where is his throne
and why do you work all mornings
and spend all night at home
and spend all night alone

Oh I see that dragon in the doorway, blocking your window view
and I see that stallion starting foreplay, mocking what once was new
the dragon makes his home where he wants to Scott Garriott - Mattress in the Snake Pit on http://www.nuttylyrics.com/scott-garriott-mattress-in-the-snake-pit/id309500
and tells you that you're wrong
and why wont the stallion accept him
and why cant they hear this song
and why cant they get along

Oh I had a dream about a mattress in a snake pit, my eyes so comforatably closed
and then some ugly red-headed step-child, said I was free from whoa
and why do I feel so balanced
when I know there's trouble ahead
and why do I feel so strongly
when I know it's all in my head
when I know someday I'll be dead
