Woke up this morning with a battle raging in my head Bird song reaching in my window but a storm is brewing …Over my bed Sleep All Day Sleep All Day (Don’t want to) Sleep All Day (Don’t want to) Sleep All Day All night songs, lost at sea, you feel the curse of being you and me What’s that you say? Our house is on fire? I don’t understand? Our house is on fire! Sleep All Day Sleep All Day (Don’t want to) Sleep All Day (Don’t want to) Sleep All Day He’s sorry, sometimes she sleeps to kill the worry She’s sorry, sometimes he sleeps to keep the worry At bay Sometimes I sleep, sleep all day Open my eyes, it’s an empty room No sound of life, like a tomb I used to see with my eyes closed But now, what do you suppose? Sometimes I sleep, Sleep all day

Call it a lust for life I called it all pretty lies And asked you to lie to me, lie to me, lie to me Famished, yet the feast never ends I drink but the thirst comes again Lie to me, lie to me, lie to me, yeah Youth! Is wasted on the young Don’t know the battle can’t be won Without a white flag Give up the gun French kissing in the fighting top A madness in the men’s shop Ladies smoke in the waiting room It happens to me, it happens to you Call it a modern life I call it all pretty lies Don’t lie to me, lie to me, lie to me, yeah A kid, a tee and (a) sweater vest Dreaming of the “dust I guess” Never wear your Sunday best: lie to me, lie to me Panic in the fighting top Confused at the bus stop Lock the door on the baby’s room It happens to me, it happens: it’s true! Youth! Is wasted on the young Don’t know the battle can’t be won Without a white flag Give up the gun

I heard it straight from the MP’s lips A cheery smile gets the biggest tips He wasn’t trying any parlor tricks But I’m unsure of his politics But his back was to the chair his face to the door The green seats all clapped and roared! “Some last for years or only days or months But I was the future once” I felt his smile deep in my heart That fire of the past, the passionate part, the sour and tart Better that than the demon you know Some pick up guitars and scream and jump They said we had a future once… That bearded queer saw deeper than I The rainbow twinkle in his teary eyes But I don't think he ever heard a word Or at the least he really misunderstood Liking the tongue, but missing the cheek Sometimes it’s better not to find what you seek You build your castle from yesterday’s junk But I was the future once

Happy Birthday! Have a slice or two Eat the whole cake No one’s stopping you If no one’s there Please don’t despair! Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday! You’ll die it’s true I say it plain Break the news to you But don’t despair Someone’s waiting there Happy Birthday Happy Birthday A cloud over you Angel wings of all things And the strings that He cued Don’t feel the care That once stole the air Happy Birthday! Happy birthday! There’s there no Fountain of Youth Juan Ponce De Leon was lost in the woods But have a care Someone’s waiting there Happy Birthday Happy Birthday! Have a slice or two Eat the whole cake No one’s stopping you If no one’s there Please don’t despair! Happy Birthday!

Hang on By your teeth if you hafta Hang on A tease in the courtroom Hang on Hang on By your teeth if you hafta Hang on Trapeze in the backroom Hang on Won’t get over it Even if you make me Even if you break me Won’t get over it Take a walk Breathe deep in the country air In a country house An island get away Try to stay awake Steamed and dreaming of Breaking your favorite plates In the neighbor’s drive Got to get away Try to stay awake It's a long night, it's a bad drive It's a complicated way to stay alive! Won’t get over it Even if you make me Even if you break me Won’t get over it Run in place Breathe deep the country air In a country house Gate-ed estate Stay awake Mother’s sleeping in The room next door again her caretaker cares for your sins more than you care for them This is not life, this is not the way to live it... Might as well just GIVE IN Won’t get over it Even if you make me Even if you break me Won’t get over it It's a long night, it's a bad drive It's a complicated way to stay alive! Will she remember? Will she remember? Won’t get over it Even if you make me This is not life, this is not the way to live it... When will I get it right? When will I give in?
