Lyrics

Miss Melody had a dream that she had everything she wanted right in front of her
Except for hot tea 'cause she knows that every time it burns her mouth and she is left without a mouth

And every night that she dreams she'll awake and believe that it's all reality
And I'm delighted to join her in smiles that adorn her in this reality

Miss Melody had a cloud that she kept inside her house until it wandered off and never came around again
In his memory planted flowers grew until the house was just a home for all the colors of the pretty flowers

And when one looks in her eyes one is never surprised that she always understands the moment
And if you're dying to meet her don't die I'm most certain with her you'll get along

On Saturday, she dreams parade
And all around the people rave
It's what they want to celebrate a chance to go from good to great

At Sunday brunch, they speak her name
Their conscious minds won't be the same
While in her home she knits a chair and uses it to knit a bear

And oh my god, she's lost control
The bear grew up and wants her soul
She tries to run but where to go?
Her home is here, that's all she knows

Miss Melody has a hat that she puts on to make herself invisible. Can you see her?  No, you can't.
She casted a spell but it goes away. It's for a very happy day.

Miss Melody stopped appearing on a Monday.
