Sleepy Head - Ed Kuepper

So please wake up, you sweet sleepy head

With night time 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 night time 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 night time coming there’s things to be said

No happy endings, serene machine

If you don’t act soon,

You’ll see what I mean
