No Sleep Blues - The Incredible String Band[00:00:00]
Cracks rack the windows[00:00:10]
Howls hold the floor[00:00:12]
Rains rot the rafters[00:00:14]
And do you just have to snore[00:00:15]
It's a most inclement climate[00:00:18]
For the season of the night[00:00:21]
Is that mouse playing football oh[00:00:23]
I thought they didn't like the light[00:00:26]
And the dawn comes sneaking up[00:00:29]
When it thinks I'm not looking[00:00:31]
I'm starting to grieve man[00:00:36]
I used to know but now I believe man[00:00:38]
They tell me sleep is a gas[00:00:40]
And if I want to lay down[00:00:41]
But I'm sorry I woke you[00:00:43]
I mean I've got the no sleep blues[00:00:44]
There's mayhem in this mansion[00:00:53]
Since the cows were coming home[00:00:55]
With delirium no sleepum[00:00:57]
In a cloud of nylon foam[00:01:00]
But release scours the outhouse[00:01:02]
And a hard rain sears the sky[00:01:04]
But if you let the pigs decide it[00:01:07]
They will put you in the sty[00:01:09]
And the dawn comes sneaking up[00:01:12]
When it thinks I'm not looking[00:01:15]
I'm starting to grieve man[00:01:20]
I used to know but now I believe man[00:01:22]
They tell me sleep is a gas[00:01:24]
I wanna lay down[00:01:26]
But I'm sorry I woke you[00:01:27]
I mean I've got the no sleep blues[00:01:28]
I think I'll get a picture[00:01:37]
And I think I'll put it on a nail[00:01:39]
I think I'll get another one[00:01:41]
And put it in a pail[00:01:44]
But the pail got so rusty[00:01:46]
I called it red red red for fun[00:01:48]
And I laughed like a leaver[00:01:51]
Till you ought to seen it run[00:01:53]
And the dawn comes sneaking up[00:01:56]
When it thinks I'm not looking[00:01:59]
I'm starting to grieve man[00:02:04]
I used to know but now I believe man[00:02:06]
They tell me sleep is a gas[00:02:09]
But I wanna lay down[00:02:10]
But I'm sorry I woke you[00:02:11]
I mean I've got the no sleep blues[00:02:12]
The size of the future declared itself no part[00:02:21]
Aloof like a Sultan in the autumn of your heart[00:02:26]
But the heart got so hearty[00:02:30]
That it pulled for the shore[00:02:33]
And the sailors fired a big salute[00:02:35]
And it made my ears quite sore[00:02:38]
And the dawn was sneaking up[00:02:41]
When it thinks I'm not looking[00:02:43]
I'm starting to grieve man[00:02:49]
I used to know but now I believe man[00:02:51]
They tell me sleep is a gas[00:02:53]
I wanna lay down[00:02:54]
But I'm sorry I woke you[00:02:55]
I mean I've got the no sleep blues[00:02:57]
I mixed stones and water[00:03:05]
Just to see what it would do[00:03:08]
And the water it got stoney[00:03:10]
And the stones got watery too[00:03:12]
So I mixed my feet with water[00:03:15]
Just to see what could be seen[00:03:17]
And the water it got dirty[00:03:20]
And the feet they got quite clean[00:03:22]
And the dawn comes sneaking up[00:03:25]
When it thinks I'm not looking[00:03:28]
I'm starting to grieve man[00:03:33]
I used to know but now I believe man[00:03:35]
They tell me sleep is a gas[00:03:37]
I wanna lay down[00:03:39]
But I'm sorry I woke you[00:03:40]
I mean I've got the no sleep blues[00:03:41]
