Amy Rigby - Stop Showing up in My Dreams Lyrics

YOU CALLED A TAXI TOLD ME YOU WERE CHECKING OUT

LEFT ME IN THE LOBBY WITH THE BILL TO THINK ABOUT

THE CONCIERGE GOT NASTY GRABBED THE PHONE TO CALL A COP

PULLED A 360 AND HE OFFERED ME A JOB

NOW I'M DRAGGING BAGGAGE

TAKING TIPS AND BENZEDRINE

TRYING TO KEEP MY EYES OPEN

SO YOU'LL STOP SHOWING UP IN MY DREAMS



A BIG BUSLOAD OF JAPANESE, THE GAY GEISHA REVIEW

I BOWED TO THEM WHEN THEY CHECKED IN IT MADE ME THINK OF YOU

YOU NEVER CALL, NEVER WRITE, NEVER EVEN FAX

THEY MOVED ME TO THE BOILER ROOM SO HOW CAN I RELAX?

I'M PEGGING EVERY METER

I'M BUILDING UP THE STEAM

BUT THIS THING IS GONNA BLOW

IF YOU DON'T STOP SHOWING UP IN MY DREAMS



HOW DID I GET HERE, IT'S A NIGHTMARE WITHOUT END

I THOUGHT YOU WERE MY LOVER

THOUGHT YOU WERE MY FRIEND

I WANNA TAKE YOU OUT FOR TELLING ME THOSE LIES

BUT THE ONLY TIME I SEE YOU

IS WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES



EVERY MORNING I TOTE ROOM SERVICE TRAYS

A BOWL OF STOLEN OATMEAL ALL I'VE HAD TO EAT IN DAYS

EACH AFTERNOON I LOOK FOR YOU OUT BY THE CURB

AND WHEN THEY LET ME OFF I HANG A SIGN "DO NOT DISTURB"

BUT YOU'RE STILL IN MY SUBCONSCIOUS

YOU'RE LIKE A SUBMARINE

I'M GONNA KEEP SCRAPING BOTTOM

TIL YOU STOP SHOWING UP IN MY DREAMS



THE HOTEL DICK WAS SUPER QUICK TO INTRODUCE HIMSELF

HE'S OFF THE CASE HE COULDN'T CRACK AND ON TO SOMETHING ELSE

IT MIGHT BE ME HE'S ON TO BUT I'M KEEPING HIM AT BAY

I DUCK BEHIND A POTTED PLANT EACH TIME HE LOOKS MY WAY

BUT I'D LIKE TO GET TO KNOW HIM

HE AIN'T QUITE WHAT HE SEEMS

BUT I DON'T WANNA MAKE MY MOVE

UNTIL YOU STOP SHOWING UP IN MY DREAMS

I CAN ENVISION US TOGETHER

MORNING PAPER, COFFEE BEANS

BUT IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN

TIL YOU STOP SHOWING UP IN MY DREAMS
