Sleeper 1972 (Live from SoHo) Lyrics
I never thought that this day'd come
I shoveled you up, grabbed the bones
If I'd only known so
I'd leave the whole goddamn town, you know
You know
Thirty years, no control
A sleeper, my father had grown
And now that I'm fully condoned
I haven't cried in weeks
but I hope I do eventually
And I thought that I would not see you
around every house that I moved
but the halo looked more like a tune
And I still feel you everywhere
Everyone, everyone is going somewhere
I shoveled you up, grabbed the bones
If I'd only known so
I'd leave the whole goddamn town, you know
You know
A sleeper, my father had grown
And now that I'm fully condoned
I haven't cried in weeks
but I hope I do eventually
And I thought that I would not see you
around every house that I moved
but the halo looked more like a tune
Everyone, everyone is going somewhere
