Morphine sedates and sends you to sleep |
|
What I would give for a sleep that was deep |
|
I can hear birds calling my name |
|
What I would give to send them away |
|
Cos I'm still awake and weary and bleary eyed |
|
I switched on my bedside light |
|
Took out my shotgun instead |
|
Fired twenty rounds of pure lead |
|
The land of nod the trees are white |
|
The sky is black, it's always the night |
|
Sleeping pills do the trick |
|
The candle's reached the end of the wick |
|
It flickers and feels so weary and bleary eyed |
|
I switched on my bedside light |
|
Took out my shotgun instead |
|
Fired twenty rounds of pure lead |
|
(one verse 'oooh's) |
|
...weary and bleary eyed |
|
I switched on my bedside light |
|
Took out my shotgun instead |
|
Fired twenty rounds of pure lead |
|
Send me to sleep (x8) |
|
To sleep (repeat and fade) |
