'The Evening Standard' in the original lyrics was changed to 'the Daily Standard' due to copyright problems with the newspaper.

It would be so nice
It would be so nice to meet sometime

Ev'rybody wakes and in the morning - hot tea
Can't stop yawning
Pass the butter please
Have you ever read the Daily Standard
Reading all about the plane that landed upside down

But no one knows what I did today
There can be no other way
But I would just like to say:
It would be so nice

Everybody cares about the weather
Everybody should know better
What a waste of time
Everybody lives beneath the ceiling
Living out a dream that sends them reeling
To a distant place

But no one knows what I did today
There can be no other way
But I would just like to say:
It would be so nice to meet sometime

The Early Years

Sunlight bright upon my pillow
Lighter than an eiderdown
Will she let the weeping willow
Wind his branches round

Julia dream
Dream boat Queen
Queen upon my dream

Ev'ry night I turn the light out
Waiting for the velvet bride
Will the scaly armadillo
find me where I'm hiding?

Julia dream
Dream boat Queen
Queen upon my dream

Will the misty master break me?
Will the key unlock my mind?
Will the folowing footsteps catch me?
Am I really dying?

Julia dream
Dream boat Queen
Queen upon my dream
