Sleep When I'm Dead
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels.
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said.
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels.
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said.
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels...
But until then...
They told me I would live forever
if I kept it clean.
They said I would be the chosen one
if I took one for the team.
Yeah it's the only way way to be.
Never think it isn't fair,
that's a green eyed panic climb
to the edge of nowhere.
Give it to the chicken and see if it ticks,
yeah give it to the kitten and see if it sicks.
Then give it to the wonderful wonderful me,
and I will tell on my return the way it is,
with all the happy boys and girls.
Yeah, the whole happy world.
And the love they feel for me,
yeah the love they feel for me.
yeah the love they feel for me.
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels.
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said.
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels.
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said.
They told me I could run the world
if I kept it quiet.
They said I could be the man
if I took it out of the sight.
In a monkey suit again,
having fun with all your friends.
How a casual hour can pull
all this world to pieces...
Give it to the bunny and see if she kicks,
yeah give it to the puppy and see if he sticks.
Then give it to the wonderful wonderful me,
I'll let you know when I get back just how it is
with all the other boys and girls.
Yeah, the whole... other world...
And the way it stirs inside.
And the why it never burns at night.
And the way they make the climb.
And the why they never pray for time.
And the way I show surprise.
And the why I never close my eyes.
Yeah, just how it is...
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels.
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said.
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels.
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said.
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels.
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said.
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels.
I'll sleep when I'm dead...
But until then...
Well I should at least feel tired I think,
before I lay me down to dream...
