We can't listen to your stories About right ways dead ends and final glory We're too tired now to concentrate We're too nervous to hesitate With closed eyes we will stumble over our feet But it's too bright and there's nothing to see We can't move the way you expect The spasms in our legs follow the rhythm in our heads We'll crawl limp stagger with autistic nonchalance Across your patterns until they are gone When we sleep you should sneak or creep Cause we're just friends of you when we sleep Hold your breath let us take our rest Cause we're just friends of you when we sleep
