Why Are We Sleeping lyrics

Artist Kevin Ayers
Album(s) Singing The Bruise

Lyrics

It begins with a blessing
And it ends with a curse;
Making life easy
By making it worse;
My mask is my master
The trumpeter weeps
But his voice is so weak
As he speaks from his sleep, saying
Why, why, why, why are we sleeping!

People are watching
People who stare;
Waiting for something
That's already there
Tomorrow I'll find it
The trumpeter screams
And remembers he's hungry
And drowns in his dreams, saying
Why, why, why, why are we sleeping!

My head is a nightclub
With glasses and wine;
The customers dancing
Or just making time;
While daevid is cursing
The customers scream!
Now everyone's shouting
"Get out of my dreams!"
