Alice Cooper - Can't Sleep, Clowns Will Eat Me

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
