Somewhere over the rainbow,

dream or fallacy?

Is it really everything, who knows,

or just some warped, reality?

Seems we’re always selling something,

doesn't need to be the truth.

The one thing you can count on is,

it’s different, from your point of view.

A smile hides a hundred sins,

you can’t see what’s hiding there inside.

When nothing is ever what it seems,

a lie can take you for a ride.

When things get to getting bad,

make believe seems a fair escape.

To give up everything you have,

could be your costliest mistake.

So, let Dorothy’s story be a lesson,

no matter how far you may roam,

If it’s fantasy you’re messing (with)

reality is, there is no place like home.
