Dust Off Your Dreams

from From The Blue House by Lauren Hoffman

/

lyrics

I'm in the middle of it
Taking orders from the man
But I'm ready to quit
Waiting tables if I can
So remember my name
When you see it up in lights
You'll know it was the same
Girl you didn't tip tonight

Look at me when I'm talking
I'm not like the other girls
With their heels and stockings
Matching noses, lips and breasts
Care of some old doc and
Yes, I am better than the rest
Why aren't you watching?

Dust off your dreams, Emilie
Dust off your dreams, Emilie

Drop by my office at six
He says, I'll get you in the flicks
Yeah, I'll make you a star
Can't you see my fancy car
And my designer clothes
A harmless little kiss
Could get you in the picture shows
Yeah I'm in the middle of it
Taking orders from the man
But I'm ready to quit
Yeah I'm in the middle of it
Taking orders from the man
But I'm ready to quit

Dust off your dreams, Emilie
Dust off your dreams, Emilie
Dust off your dreams, Emilie
Dust off your dreams, Emilie

Lauren Hoffman Los Angeles, California

music is exceptionally useful for communicating the nuance and complexity of the human experience because it is an emotional language, we process and respond to it in a different way than thoughts, beyond the limits of linguistics. that's why it's special and mysterious and i love it. that's why i write and sing and play instruments and make records. that's why i share my songs with you. ... more
