Mumbling good morning and raising my head A bad breath kiss to my pillow pet Takes a look at the day And turns and stay in bed
Open my eyes when the day has died I turned the world and I slept alright Now my day-mare's over, I zip my jeans tight Oh Lord, won't you bless this night?
From the pale lips of a youth who lay I'm sleeping my day away And when the night comes to the city, I say I'm sleeping my day away
Yeah, with my pale lips in the pillow, I say I'm sleeping my day away After dark is the game I play I'm sleeping my day, I'm sleeping my day away
When my dreams begin I'll be proud to be lettin' you in With a smile on my face I guide our dreamboat in
So if you wanna travel along with me You better sleep tight the rest of the day You see I could be a sleeper, it's not rest I lack 'Cause I hit the sack when the sun's coming back
From the pale lips of a youth who lay I'm sleeping my day away When the night comes to the city, I say I'm sleeping my day away
Yeah, with my pale lips in the pillow, I say I'm sleeping my day away That after dark is the game I play I'm sleeping my day, I'm sleeping my day I'm sleeping my day away
I'm sleeping my day away I'm sleeping my day away Yeah, now I've turned the world around, yeah, I did it again I'm sleeping my day away And now I have to wear my shades down sleeper's lane I'm sleeping my day away
Yeah, all the good people have gone to bed again I'm sleeping my day away Because the devil's at work inside my brain I'm sleeping my day away
I'm sleeping my day I'm sleeping my day away I'm sleeping my day away, away
