everything i hate
is starting to percolate
and you want to stir me up
put some sweetness in my cup
even if i thought i could change
my mind, my thoughts would feel strange
sugar and cream
you live in a dream
don't make it sweeter than i'll ever be
sugar and cream
you live in a dream
sugar and cream
you gave me some time to brew
but i still don't know what to do
i know that you need me au lait
but i can't serve it up that way
and i've got a childish streak
you don't deserve it mild and weak
like sugar and cream
you live in a dream
don't make it sweeter than i'll ever be
sugar and cream
you live in a dream
that you and i both know ain't coming true
or maybe i just don't try as hard as you
and if i stayed, i'd drag you down
like dead-weight on your team
sugar and cream
you live in a dream
don't make it sweeter than i'll ever be
sugar and cream
you live in a dream
sugar and cream
