Little Nemo rubbed his eyes and got out of bed
Trying hard to piece together a broken dream
His visions lifelike and full of imagination
It's strange to think they come from such a tiny head

Dragons breathing fire, but friendly
Mushrooms tall as houses
Giant nymphs and goblins playing
Scenes from a night's dream, poor Little Nemo!

Eating all kinds of food so close to bedtime
Always made him have these nightmares it seemed

Helped young Washington in the garden
Cut the cherry tree down
Now we all know that's not history
Scenes from a night's dream, poor Little Nemo!
