Little Nemo rubbed his eyes and got out of bed

Trying hard to piece together a broken dream

His visions lifelike and full of imagination

It's strange to think they come from such a tiny head



Dragons breathing fire, but friendly

Mushrooms tall as houses

Giant nymphs and goblins playing

Scenes from a night's dream, poor Little Nemo!



Eating all kinds of food so close to bedtime

Always made him have these nightmares it seemed



Helped young Washington in the garden

Cut the cherry tree down

Now we all know that's not history

Scenes from a night's dream, poor Little Nemo!
