From the recording Take Me Back To The Country
Lyrics
SLEEPY HEAD (Walsh)
Wake up wake up
Sleepy head
There is no breakfast
In your bed
I know it’s a long way down those stairs in the morning
But there is no peace in this house when you’re snoring
Sleepy head sleepy head
Your eggs are cold
I have no patience
For your stories
I know you were chasing her around the moon on the backyard swing
But she flew away on wings of dragon fire mist and silver gold
Oh Sleepy head
What did I tell you about dreaming?
There are monsters that live on the edges of your eyeballs
Wake up wake up
Sleepy head
The breakfast table
Is not a pillow
