Sleepyhead Songtext
von Ed Kuepper

So please wake up, you sweet sleepy head
With nighttime coming, there′re things to be said
No happy endings, serene machine
If you don't act soon, you′ll see what I mean

If you scratch your world to pieces
You'll see the stains and all the creases that are hidden away
With your sweet life at an all-time low
No sweet-talkers with gems for eyes to show the way
Well, your story could be ending
Without ever happy ending to help pull it all through
And your mind could run so wild
In, oh, ten thousand endless miles along a one way street

So please wake up, you sweet sleepy head
With nighttime coming, there's things to be said
No happy endings, serene machine
If you don′t act soon, you′ll see what I mean


Like your two cent friends with their pretend faith
Who've ruled your world since distant time
And then stole it away
Well, I know you′re always right
But still prepared to say you're wrong
Who could ask for more?
But your story could be ending
Without ever happy ending to help pull it all through
And your mind would run so wild
In, oh ten thousand endless miles along a one-way street

So please wake up, you sweet sleepy head
With nighttime coming there′s things to be said
No happy endings, serene machine
If you don't act soon, you′ll see what I mean

So please wake up, you sweet sleepy head
With nighttime coming there's things to be said
No happy endings, serene machine
If you don't act soon, you′ll see what I mean
