The Cure - 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 |
|
Well until then... |
|
Told me I could run the world |
|
If I kept it clean |
|
Told me I could be the chosen one |
|
If I took one for the team |
|
And it's the only way to be |
|
Never think it isn't fair |
|
It's a green-eyed panic pride |
|
To the edge of nowhere |
|
Give it to the chick |
|
And see if it ticks |
|
Give it to the kid |
|
See if it sticks |
|
Give it to the wonderful, wonderful me |
|
I'll let you know on my return just how it is |
|
with all the other boys and girls |
|
The way they grew to be |
|
The love they feel about 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 |
|
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 sight |
|
So in a monkey suit of pins |
|
Having fun with all your friends |
|
How a casual act can pull |
|
All this world to pieces |
|
Give it to the bunny |
|
And see if she kicks |
|
Give it to the puppy |
|
See if it sticks |
|
Give it to the wonderful, wonderful me |
|
I'll let you know when I return on how it is |
|
with all the other boys and girls |
|
The way they feel inside |
|
The why they never make it by |
|
The way they are inside |
|
The why I never take the time |
|
The way they are inside |
|
The why I never act surprised |
|
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 |
|
Well until then... |
|
I may as well be tired, I think |
|
Before I lay me down to dream |
