Don't sing me lullabies

I won't close my eyes

I can't close my eyes

It's true I'm doomed

Til dawn shines through



Got too many things to do

Got friends to see

I can't miss a thing

It's true I'm through

I'm screwed unglued



I won't close my eyes

I can't close my eyes

I never close my eyes

See they're always there

With funny hair

Oh I'm so scared



It happens to me every night

Can't sleep the clowns will eat me

They always want to take a bite

Can't sleep the clowns will eat me

And if you think this isn't real

I'll show you wounds that never heal

To them I'm just a Happy Meal

Can't sleep the clowns will eat me



Make the coffee black as night

Help me through the night

I know their appetite

For me I'm meat

But I'm sweet as can be



And if I do too much booze

I begin to snooze

I hear the big old floppy shoes

It's true I'm stew

I'm chewed



I won't close my eyes

I can't close my eyes

I never close my eyes

See they're always there

With that funny hair

Oh I'm so scared



It happens to me every night

Can't sleep the clowns will eat me

They always want to take a bite

Can't sleep the clowns will eat me

And if you think this isn't real

I'll show you wounds that never heal

To them I'm just a Happy Meal

Can't sleep the clowns will eat me



It happens to me every night

Can't sleep the clowns will eat me

They always want to take a bite

Can't sleep the clowns will eat me

And if you think this isn't real

I'll show you wounds that never heal

To them I'm just a Happy Meal

Can't sleep the clowns will eat me
