Fantasy has Smashed into my Reality

Fantasy has Smashed into my Reality

Fantasy has smashed into my reality

I couldn’t dream it

Definitely, a case of

My stomach being bigger than my boggled eyes

Giant carousel rides

It’s own Central Park

As I drink and eat my latte and raisin and oatmeal cookie

Sunbathing at the big pool

A red tube of a twisted spaghetti shoot

So please, don’t try to correct me

I’m living in a holiday fantasy

On this big ship

So big, it doesn’t tip

More than 6 thousand people fit

As I sit

Fountains spring

Turning into a spaceship of bar stools seating

A long board walk

Many people stop and talk

Fast food

This is a fantasy smashing into reality

As we hit the big seas

This ship of skyscrapers with entertainment and continuous food

So many different views

Trees above me

Trees below me

I don’t feel this boat rock or roll

This ship is simply massive

The portion’s three times my usual size

A music mix

Falling down the decks

Karaoke and jazz

I just sit back

Let the Captain sail this massive ship

A Caribbean trip

Stopping every so often, to dip my toe

As we soon will go

This ship is simply massive

I couldn’t dream it

Definitely a case of

My stomach being bigger than my boggled eyes

Giant carousel rides

It’s own Central Park

Starbucks too

I just show my boarding pass

I’m in a fantasy reality

I caught this gigantic ship

Fantasy has smashed it

Fantasy has smashed into my reality

This cruise, maybe isn’t so cool

As I see a miniature tsunami

In the floating swimming pool

This cruise, maybe isn’t so cool

As I see the water sway from side to side

Making waves

As we drink a pint in the pub

Where we all sing along

To a much loved, familiar song

I feel the floor move

Missing a little step

Picking up the beat

I’m not drunk yet

As the waves sweep beneath me

As I see a miniature tsunami

In the floating swimming pool

This cruise, maybe isn’t so cool
