St. Judy’s Comet Songtext
von Paul Simon

Wuh, little sleepy boy, do you know what time it is
Well, the hour of your bedtime′s long been past
And though I know you're fightin′ it
I can tell when you rub your eyes, you're fadin' fast
Oh, fadin′ fast
Won′t you run come see St. Judy's Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake
I long to see St. Judy′s Comet
Sparkle in your eyes when you awake
Oh, when you wake, wake
Little boy
Won't you lay your body down
Little boy
Won′t you close your weary eyes
Ain't nothing flashin′ but the fireflies
Well, I sang it once and I sang it twice
I'm gonna sing it three times more
Gonna stay 'til your resistance′s overcome


′Cause if I can't sing my boy to sleep
Well, it makes your famous daddy look so dumb
He look so dumb
Won′t you run come see St. Judy's Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake
I long to see St. Judy′s Comet
Sparkle in your eyes when you awake
Oh, when you wake, wake
Little boy, little boy
Won't you lay your body down
Little boy, little boy
Won′t you close your weary eyes
Ain't nothin' flashin′ but the fireflies
Wuh, little sleepy boy, do you know what time it is
Well, the hour of your bedtime′s long been past
Though I know you're fightin′ it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
That you're fadin′ fast, ooh, fadin' fast
