Facts:
  • In the final sketch of the show, Neil sings this song to a girl (Terry Gilliam's future wife- and true to the episode's main theme, both are wearing WWII-era uniforms and standing in front of a Spitfire) while she actively ignores him and the credits roll. (Stavro Arrgolus)
  • De facto theme tune to Ep. 42 of the Python series. This Neil Innes tune begins and ends the show and permeates it in instrumental form throughout. (Stavro Arrgolus)
  • Song Lyrics:
    The outlook for today is mainly tragic,
    Cloudy, dull, occasional rain and scattered magic,
    But unlike those who say
    They prefer the good old days,
    I hardly ever feel nostalgic.
    And although the intellectually agile,
    Can logically prove the heart is fragile,
    Drifting unawares
    Through all of its affairs,
    Nevertheless
    Love is still the simple badge I'll proudly wear...

    When does a dream begin?
    Does it start with a goodnight kiss?
    Is it begun when two hearts are one
    When does a dream begin?

    When does a dream begin?
    Is it born in a moment of bliss?
    Is it conceived or simply achieved
    When does a dream begin?

    The vision of you appears somehow
    Impossible to resist
    But I'm not imagining seeing you now
    For who could have dreamed of this?

    When does a dream begin?
    When reality is dismissed?
    Or does it commence when we lose all pretense?
    When does a dream begin?

    When does a dream begin?
    (Stavro Arrgolus)
