Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Judy wrote the saddest song
She showed it to a boy in school today
Judy, where did you go wrong?
You used to make me smile when I was down
[Verse 2]
Judy was a teenage rebel
She did it with a boy when she was young
She gave herself to books and learning
She gave herself to being number one
[Verse 3]
Judy, I don't know you, if you're going to show me everything
Judy, I don't know you, if you're going to show me everything
[Verse 4]
Judy got a book at school
She went under the covers with her torch
Fell asleep till it was morning
She dreamt about the girl who stole a horse
[Verse 5]
Judy never felt so good except when she was sleeping
Judy never felt so good except when she was sleeping, yeah
[Verse 6]
Judy, let's go for a walk
We can kiss and do whatever you want
But you will be disappointed
You will fall asleep with ants in your pants
[Verse 7]
Judy, you're just trying to find and keep the dream of horses
And the song she wrote was "Judy and the dream of horses"
Dream of horses
Dream of horses
Dream of horses
[Verse 8]
The best looking boys are taken
The best looking girls are staying inside
So Judy, where does that leave you?
Walking the street from morning to night
[Verse 9]
With a star upon your shoulder lighting up the path that you walk
With a parrot on your shoulder saying everything when you talk
[Verse 10]
If you're ever feeling blue then write another
Song about your dream of horses
Write a song about your dream of horses
Call it "Judy and the dream of horses"
Call it "Judy and the dream of horses"
[Verse 11]
You dream of horses
You dream of horses
You dream of horses
You dream of horses
