The Stone Roses - How Do You Sleep? lyrics
rate meI've seen your severed head<br />
At a banquet for the dead<br />
All are dressed up for dinner<br />
Looked so fine<br />
Your shining silver salver<br />
So tastefully powdered<br />
With the finest military quick lime<br />
<br />
Now try and picture this<br />
As I gave you a kiss<br />
The apple in your mouth slipped in mine<br />
The orchestra played the sweetest serenade<br />
We laughed as we put away your wine<br />
So raise your glasses, here's a toast to wasted lives<br />
May all their ghosts come back to haunt you<br />
And tell you how they died<br />
<br />
How do you sleep<br />
How do you last the night<br />
And keep the dogs at bay<br />
How do you feel when you close your eyes<br />
And try and drift away<br />
Does it feel any better now<br />
Does it mean any more<br />
When the angel of death comes<br />
Knock- knocking and banging at your door<br />
<br />
When all the fun was over<br />
I put you on my shoulder<br />
Took you home away from it all<br />
Shot down and claimed<br />
Mounted and framed<br />
Tastefully hung upon my wall<br />
All my dreams your nightmares?<br />
I hope they all come true<br />
Get off your knees the party is over<br />
I'm coming home to you<br />
<br />
How do you sleep<br />
How do you last the night<br />
And keep the dogs at bay<br />
How do you feel when you close your eyes<br />
And try and drift away <br />
Does it feel any better now<br />
Does it mean any more<br />
When the angel of death comes<br />
Knock- knocking and banging at your door<br />
<br />
How do you sleep<br />
How do you last the night<br />
And keep the dogs at bay<br />
How do you feel when you close your eyes<br />
And try and drift away<br />
Does it feel any better now<br />
Does it mean any more<br />
When the angel of death comes<br />
Knock knocking and banging at your door<br />
at your door...
<br />
