No Sleep Blues - Blonde On Blonde

No Sleep Blues - Blonde On Blonde
Composer：Robin Williamson
Cracks rack the windows howls hold the floor
Rains rot the rafters do you just have to snore
It's a most inclement climate for the season of the night
Is that mouse playing football
I thought they didn't like the light
And the dawn comes sneaking up
When it thinks I'm not looking
I am starting to grieve man
I used to know but now believe me
Tell me sleep is a gas
I wanna lay down but I'm sorry I woke you now
Even I've got the no sleep blues
There's mayhem in this mansion
Since the cows were coming home
With delirium no sleep um
In a cloud of nylon foam
But release scours the outhouse
When a hard rain sears the sky
And if you let the pigs decide it
They'll put you in the sty
And the dawn comes sneaking up
When it thinks I'm not looking
I am starting to grieve man
I used to know but now believe me
Tell me sleep is a gas
I wanna lay down but I'm sorry I woke you now
Even I've got the no sleep blues
I think I'll get a picture
I think I'll put it on a nail
And then I think I'll go and get another one
And I'll put it in a pail
But the pail got so rusty
I called it red red red for fun
And it laughed like a leaver
Till you ought to seen it run
And the dawn comes sneaking up
When it thinks I'm not looking
I am starting to grieve man
I used to know but now believe me
Tell me sleep is a gas
I wanna lay down but I'm sorry I woke you now
Even I've got the no sleep blues
The science of the future declared itself no part
Aloof like a Sultan in the autumn of your heart
But the heart it got so hearty
That it roared for the shore
And the sailors fired a big salute
Which made my ears quite sore
And the dawn was sneaking up
When it thinks I'm not looking
I am starting to grieve man
I used to know but now believe me
Tell me sleep is a gas
I wanna lay down but I'm sorry I woke you now
Even I've got the no sleep blues
