Tired Of Sleeping - Suzanne Vega
Oh Mum the dreams are not so bad
It's just that there's
so much to do
And I'm tired of sleepin
Oh Mum the old man is
telling me something
His eyes are wide and
his mouth is thin and I
just can't hear what he's saying
Oh Mum
I wonder when I'll be wakened
It's just that there's
so much to do
And I'm tired of sleeping
Oh Mum
I wonder when I'll be wakened
It's just that there's
so much to do
And I'm tired of sleeping
Oh Mum
the kids are playing in pennies
They're up to their knees in money
And the dirt of the churchyard steps
Oh Mum
that man he ripped out his lining
Tore out a piece of his body
To show us his clean courted heart
Oh Mum
I wonder when I'll be wakened
It's just that there's
so much to do
And I'm tired of sleeping
Oh Mum
I wonder when I'll be wakened
It's just that there's
so much to do
And I'm tired of sleeping

Oh Mum
the bird on the string is hanging
Bones are twisting and dancing
She's fighting for her small life
Oh Mum
I wonder when I'll be wakened
It's just that there's
so much to do
And I'm tired of sleeping
Oh Mum
I wonder when I'll be wakened
It's just that there's
so much to do
And I'm tired of sleeping
Oh Mum
I wonder when I'll be wakened
It's just that there's
so much to do
And I'm tired of sleeping
