'''"Dream Operator"''' is a song that played over the end credits of "[[How I Wet Your Mother]]". It was originally written by [[David Byrne]] and the parody lyrics were written by [[Billy Kimball]]. Both David Byrne and [[Glenn Close]] sing it.

David Byrne's parts were originally sung by [[Dan Castellaneta]] in case Byrne couldn't sing them himself. However, David Byrne managed to email in his singing parts and they were used instead, with Castellaneta's parts scrapped.<ref>[http://simpsonsmusic500.wordpress.com/2012/03/12/finishing-how-i-wet-your-mother-and-starting-them-robot/ Simpsons Music 500 - "Finishing How I Wet Your Mother and Starting Them, Robot"]</ref>

== Lyrics ==
:'''David Byrne:'''
:When you were little,
:You dreamed you were big.
:You must have been something,
:A real tiny kid.
:'''Glenn Close:'''
:When you were big,
:And needed advice,
:You reached for your mom,
:You dreamed me alive.
:And your-
:'''David Byrne and Glenn Close:'''
:Dream had a name.
:And the name told your story.
:It's called, growing up.
:You're the dream operator.
