Been here long enough now, I'm fighting the effect |
|
Through many sunsets, dancing bones, gargling architects |
|
A night that's old, a floor that's floating |
|
I'd like to make a bet |
|
That you will drag me to your room |
|
My bloody bride |
|
And get me bleeding for the pill |
|
The precious pill, so switch it off now |
|
Switch it off now, and let me sleep |
|
Switch it off now, I'm sick of counting sheep |
|
Switch it off now, I'm down here on my knees, saying please |
|
The needle is a lady, and a lady needs respect |
|
With trembling hands, she feels uneasy, she's liable to fret |
|
And then to punish, then to tease |
|
She'd strip you, shoot you in the knees |
|
But she will never ever leave |
|
Switch it off now, let me sleep |
|
Switch it off now, I said I'm sick of counting sheep |
|
Switch it off now, I'm down here on my knees |
|
I'm saying please |
|
Please ... |
