Sleepytime in the Western World Lyrics


Your eyelids are made of lead
You can't keep them up
'Cause its sleepytime
And that's no crime in the western world
Cause when the sun goes down
Youre bound to follow through
Sleepin' through the afternoon
I just can't seem to leave my room
Waiting for the moon and a love so true
It's gonna see me through
You know it's gonna see me through'Cause when the sun goes down
Its gonna make that dream come true
Sleeping through the afternoon
I just cant seem to leave my room
Waiting for the moon and a love so true
Its gonna see me through
You know its gonna see me throughDrifting down the sleepy river
Waking like a child

Never gonna know what the spirit said
Unless you drift down for a while
Never gonna know what the wind is whispering now
Never gonna know unless you leave this world somehow
Unless you leave this world somehowI woke up on the street
So apprehensive, feeling weak
And as I finally tried to speak
Twelve birds flew straightways from my mouthI circled high above the sky
Began to cry with piercing sounds
A crowd gathered on the ground
All speaking strangely through their teethI felt alone and in my crib
I spoke once more into the wind
A storm of birds contained therein
Began to spin, to spinYour eyelids are made of lead
You cant keep them up
'Cause its sleepy time
And thats no crime in the western world
Cause when the sun goes down
Youre bound to follow through
Sleepin' through the afternoon
I just cant seem to leave my room
When I fall in love with a love so true
Its gonna see me through
You know its gonna see me through
