The Cure - Sleep When I'm Dead lyrics
rate me<BR>
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels<br>
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said<br>
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels<br>
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said<br>
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels<br>
<br>
But until then<br>
<br>
They told me I would live forever<br>
If I kept it clean<br>
They said I would be the chosen one<br>
If I took one for the team<br>
<br>
Yeah, it's the only way to be<br>
Never think it isn't fair<br>
That's a green eyed panic climb<br>
To the edge of nowhere<br>
<br>
Give it to the chicken and see if it ticks<br>
Yeah, give it to the kitten and see if it sicks<br>
Then give it to the wonderful, wonderful me<br>
And I will tell on my return the way it is<br>
<br>
With all the happy boys and girls<br>
Yeah, the whole happy world<br>
And the love they feel for me<br>
Yeah, the love they feel for me<br>
<br>
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels<br>
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said<br>
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels<br>
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said<br>
<br>
They told me I could run the world<br>
If I kept it quiet<br>
They said I could be the man<br>
If I took it out of sight<br>
<br>
In a monkey suit again<br>
Having fun with all your friends<br>
How a casual hour can pull<br>
All this world to pieces<br>
<br>
Give it to the bunny and see if she kicks<br>
Yeah, give it to the puppy and see if he sticks<br>
Then give it to the wonderful, wonderful me<br>
I'll let you know when I get back just how it is<br>
<br>
With all the other boys and girls<br>
Yeah, the whole ...<br>
Other world<br>
<br>
And the way it stirs inside<br>
And the why it never burns at night<br>
And the way they make the climb<br>
And the why they never pray for time<br>
<br>
And the way I show surprise<br>
And the why I never close my eyes<br>
Yeah, just how it is<br>
<br>
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels<br>
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said<br>
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels<br>
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said<br>
<br>
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels<br>
I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said<br>
Sleep when I'm dead, you angels<br>
I'll sleep when I'm dead<br>
<br>
But until then<br>
<br>
Well, I should at least feel tired I think<br>
Before I lay me down to dream<br>
<BR><BR>
