Sleep police

Revised

When it's after dinnerĀ 
And time for sleepĀ 

You're the police.

You want to go outĀ 

After dark.

Ā 

But town is tomorrow's problemĀ 

I'll deal withĀ 

When tomorrow's sun comes up.

Sleep policeĀ 

Let me sleep,

Ā 

My acrophobic wishless thinkingĀ 

Gets to me.

I'll brave the publicĀ 

Never if I never sleep.

I'll dream betterĀ 

Ā 

In the light of day when I'm rested

And there's not anotherĀ 

Place for me.

Sleep police,

Let me, let me be.
