Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I think I been sleepin' for 40 days and
Yeah, I know I'm sleepin' 'cause this dream's too amazin'
She got gold doorknobs where her eyes used to be, yeah
One turn and I learned what it really means to see, yeah
[Verse 2]
Ah
It's the magical mystery kind
Ah
Must be a lie
Bye-bye to the too good to be true kind of love
Oh, I could die
Oh, now I could die
[Verse 3]
Oh, I've been sleepin' for 60 days and
Nobody better pinch me, bitch, I swear I'll go crazy
She got jumper cable lips, she got sunset on her breath now
I inhaled just a little bit, now I got no fear of death now
[Verse 4]
Ah
It's the magical mystery kind
Ah
Must be a lie
Bye-bye to the too good to be true kind of love
Oh, I could die
Oh, now I could die
[Verse 5]
Ah-ooh-ah
Ooh-ah
Yeah
(Yeah) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ah
Ooh-ah
Yeah
(Yeah) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ah
Ooh aah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah)
[Verse 6]
Ah
It's the magical mystery kind
Ah
Must be a lie
Bye-bye to the too good to be true kind of love
Oh, I could die
Oh, now I could die
