In A World Of My Own; Very Good Advice

Cats and rabbits would reside in fancy little houses
And be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers
In a world of my own
All the flowers would have very extra special powers
They would sit and talk to me for hours
When I'm lonely in a world of my own
There'd be new birds, lots of nice and friendly howdy-do birds
Everyone would have a dozen bluebirds
Within that world of my own.

I could listen to a babbling brook and hear a song that I could understand
I keep wishing it could be that way
I keep wishing
I keep wishing
I keep wishing
I keep wishing
Cause my world would be a wonderland.

I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it
That explains the trouble I'm always in
"Be patient" is very good advice, but the waiting makes me curious
And I love the change, should something strange begin
Well I went along my merry way and I never stopped to reason
I should've known there'd be a price to pay some day
I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it
Will I ever learn to do the things I should?
