william finn - i can't sleep lyrics

Loading...

[ladies]
marvin’s giddy seizures
marvin needs love
he needs love
he needs love
he needs love
he needs love
he needs love
he needs love

[marvin]
ahhh!

[ladies]
he needs love

[marvin]
i need sleep
i’m a gem
i’m awake
and it’s three a.m
drink some tea, see it’s five
and i’m still here alive
god, i’m sick of counting rows of sheep
i can’t sleep

still awake

[ladies]
la la la la

[marvin]
give me peace

[ladies]
la. la

[marvin]
make them cease-

[ladies]
make them cease

[marvin]
-their abusive chatter
it’s romance he bewares
and perchance-

[ladies]
well, who cares?

[marvin]
so i’m turning out the bedroom light
it’s a fight
sh-t

[ladies]
12 o’clock

[marvin]
good night

[ladies]
1 o’clock

[marvin]
i’m reading

[ladies]
2 o’clock

[marvin]
i’m still awake and thinking

[ladies]
what?

[marvin]
maybe i’ll be…

[ladies, louder]
what?

[marvin]
become a…

[ladies, angry]
what?

[marvin, softly]
a nun

[ladies, loud]
go to sleep

[marvin]
maybe none of the above
maybe one day…

[ladies]
maybe one day…

[marvin]
i’ll win

[ladies]
we love you

[marvin]
at love

[wife]
i love you
[marvin]
at love
at love

i can’t talk
[ladies]
we love you

[sweetheart]
he can’t talk

[marvin]
i got phlegm

[goldberg]
he’s got phlegm

[marvin]
’cause of them

[ladies]
la la la la

[marvin]
they abuse my reason
how they fi-re my pique
’cause my bladder is weak
and they never really disappear
and i’d like so much to whizz
without them there

[ladies]
look out, look out, the man’s a fool
look out, the man’s appealing
look out, he breaks the golden rule
look out, what’s he concealing

look into marvin’s head

[marvin]
who can rebuild
the people i’ve k!lled
in bed?

[goldberg]
ohhhhh…

[marvin]
i need lips
i need arms
i need…what?

[ladies]
what?

[marvin]
i need bombs exploding
it’s important to win
but i’m scared to begin
so i chose to look before i leap
and i leap

i need-

[ladies]
six o’clock

[marvin]
sleep

[ladies]
six-oh-five

[marvin]
exhausted

[ladies]
six fifteen

[marvin]
i think perhaps i’m dreaming of…

[ladies]
maybe br–sts

[marvin]
a chest

[ladies]
and legs

[marvin]
and thighs…

maybe none of the above

[ladies]
let him sleep

[marvin]
and dream

[ladies]
and dream

[marvin]
and win…

[ladies]
we love you

[marvin]
at love

[sweetheart]
i love you
[marvin]
at love
at love

i’m asleep
[ladies]
we love you

[wife]
close your eyes

[marvin]
will it keep?

[ladies]
it will keep
he will prize his slumber

[marvin]
i could sleep through the day
if they’d just slip away

[ladies]
but we reappear with every breath

[marvin]
i accept my faults
and welcome sudden death

[ladies]
look out, look out, the man’s a fool
look out, the man’s appealing
look out, he breaks the golden rule
look out, what he’s concealing

[all]
look into marvin’s head

[marvin]
who can rebuild
the people i’ve k!lled
in bed?

[ladies]
ohhh…

[all]
give
him
sleep
and…

[ladies]
give him sleep and…
give him sleep and…

[all]
give him sleep and
love!
