(Going on and on an on
On and on and on
On and on and on and on
And on and on and on
For me... and for you)
Hail dreamer
Hail dreamer

Hail dreamer
Hail dreamer
Hey dreamer
Hey dreamer
Hey dreamer
How are you
Since dreams can be
What will you want to be?
"Well I'll be a dragonfly"
Said the bumblebee
"How about you, housefly?"
Asked the horsefly
"Well give me a flying horse
And I'll be satisfied"
Hail dreamer

Hail dreamer
Hey dreamer
Hey dreamer
I'm sorry for interfering with your presence
So we've been told
We're currently in existence
Centuries are coming
As pleasantries linger on
I am sure you're aware
Of the current happenings
So we've been told
We've got to do the dancing
Chance the rhythm of heartbeats
Chance and chance 'till beat end
So how do I describe it then?
They say I'm a boy and you're a girl
We laugh some, hate some
And that's about it really
(Barbarians, barbarians, barbarians)
(Barbarians, barbarians, barbarians)
The barbarians are coming!
(Dreamers, dreamers, dreamers)
Will the dreamers stay strong?
(Dreamers, dreamers, dreamers)
(Barbarians, barbarians, barbarians)
Barbarians are coming!
(Barbarians, barbarians, barbarians)
The barbarians are coming
(Dreamers, dreamers, dreamers)
But will the dreamers stay strong?
(Dreamers, dreamers, dreamers)
Will they?

Parole e musica di Benjamin Clementine
Un brano poi incluso nell'album "I Tell a Fly", pubblicato nel 2017
I Tell a Fly concludes with this song on which Clementine warns "Barbarians are coming!" Q magazine asked him who are the Barbarians? He replied: "The people who perpetuate fear. Since about 2010, I've noticed there's been this focus that we must be scared, we must be on our toes. And the best way to stop that fear is to keep dreaming, which is why I sing 'Dreamers, stay strong!'" (Songfacts)
