Clowns Will Eat Me Lyrics

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
You 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,
unchewed

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

This song is an ode to one of Alices favorite shows, The Simpsons. In an episode, Bart is sitting in his bed in the middle of the night saying "can't sleep, clowns will eat me". I'm sure Alice watched the episode, heard the line, found it hysterical and wrote this song. Simple as that.

i fear of clowns should start to listen to this

Cover art for Clowns Will Eat Me lyrics by Alice Cooper

This song isn't call Clowns Will Eat Me. It's title is, "Can't Sleep, Clowns Will Eat Me." Which is 1/2 lame because when you search for it, it doesn't come up. At one point this song was a Japan-only release.
