I didn't want to do it but I got too lonely
I had to call you up in the middle of the night
I know it's awful hard to try to make love long distance
But I really needed stimulation
Though it was only my imagination
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
But sometimes a fantasy
Is all you need
When am I gonna take control get a hold of my emotions
Why does it only seem to hit me in the middle of the night
You told me there's a number I can always dial for assistance
I don't want to deal with outside action
Only you can give me satisfaction
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
But sometimes a fantasy
Is all you need
Sure it would be better if I had you here to hold me
Be better baby but believe me it's the next best thing
I'm sure there's many times you've wanted me to hear your secrets
Don't be afraid to say the words that move me
Anytime you want to tell them to me
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
But sometimes a fantasy
Is all you need
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing

Sometimes a Fantasy lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group
d.: Hey, Cal.E., what are you doing?
C.: I'm making out my roster for my fantasy cat laser tag team.
d.: I’ve never heard of such a thing!
C.: Neither had I, until I caught Ralph playing a game of it. He plays in the “C” league…
d.: so, he plays in a league that’s strictly for recreation?
C.: No, d.c. The “C” league is the highest league. The “C” stands for cat. Any cat playing in the CAt league is really good!
d.: So, where does a cat start playing to learn the ropes of the league?
C.: The “D” league.
d.: That makes sense. You would need to play in the developmental league to learn how to play a new game…
C.: No, d.c. The “D” stands for Dog. It’s the lowest league there is in Fantasy Cat Laser Tag. Every cat wants to play well enough to get out of that league, since it’s an insult to call a cat a dog!
d.: I see. Well, you know football and baseball pretty well, Cal.E. Both of those sports have fantasy leagues. Why don’t you play one of those fantasy sports, if you’re bored?
C.: I would, but playing Fantasy Cat Laser Tag gives me a chance to meet other cats. oNly humans play fantasy football and baseball. This will give me a chance to make friends with my own species.
d.: That’s true, I suppose. I have Eudora and my sons, as well as the people I work and train with. You only have your kittens, since no one at work knows that you can talk. Why don’t y’all play a real game of laser tag, though?
C.: Well, you know how lazy cats are, d.c. Getting another cat to simulate exercise for us is ideal for a species that prides itself on being so laid back that we sleep a majority of the time.
d.: Well, if you don’t know anything about the players, how do you choose a good team?
C.: It’s not about being good. It’s just about making new friends. I choose players based on their “laziness scale,” and then I discuss trades with other cats. Real fantasy games are seldom played. It’s more about social interaction than playing the game.
d.: That sounds like the human game “Bunco''. It’s a dice game that requires little, if any skill. It’s more about getting together and enjoying each other’s company than actually playing the game.
C.: At least my game requires the skill of trading for the best players! So far, I’ve got an all-star team!
d.: But, if you never actually play a game, what good will it do you to have the best players?
C.: That’s all the time we have for today, folks. I must get back to my trade talks. Please join us tomorrow for another episode of Cal.E.’s Corner.
