Thompson Twins – Don't Mess With Doctor Dream Lyrics 15 years ago
I think it's about drugs and the effects it has on the human body.

Don't mess with doctor dream
Don't mess with doctor dream
Come lay your head down on the stone
So cool and white and welcome home
Oh lose your troubles, ease your pain
Soothe your soul in golden rain

(snorting a drug or otherwise injecting a white substance into your system, all your troubles go away while your brain is floating high on the drug.)

Blue Marble Seas
I will make you feel so good
Roll over me
Blue marble dreams
Like you always knew you would
Roll over me

(the drug takes effect, skewing perception and making the user feel good.)

Don't mess with doctor dream
Don't mess with doctor dream
He's not one for sympathy
Don't mess with doctor dream
Don't mess with doctor dream
He will bring you to your knees

(A warning: don't take drugs, because the long term effects can bring any person to their knees, and the drug itself doesn't care or offer sympathy to the one addicted to it.)

In the hours before the dawn
You curse the day that you were born
Oh those demons scream in ecstasy
And you crawl around in agony
Doctor jeers and fades away
Yeah this is the price that you must pay

(Morning comes, the drug works its way out of your system. You come down from your high, you suffer the after effects as the happy effects fade out. Here's the price for those hours of joy.)
