Who's that lying on the floor
Like a fallen meteor
It's the sleeping man.
Tomorrow just slipped away
Whatever happened to yesterday
You play you pay
Sleeping man.
Sandman please leave him alone
Let him out of the twilight zone
Just for once let him answer the phone
Sleeping man.
Sandman please leave him alone
Let him out of the twilight zone
Just for once let him answer the phone
Sleeping man.
After supper eyes shut tight
Night is day and day is night
He's not a pretty sight
Sleeping man.
Face down on the table, drink in his hand
He doesn't hear the noise of the band
With a head full of ideas and eyes full of sand
Lies the sleeping man.
Sandman please leave him alone
Let him out of the twilight zone
Just for once let him answer the phone
Sleeping man.
Sandman please leave him alone
Let him out of the twilight zone
Just for once let him answer the phone
Sleeping man.
(Guitar Solo)
Sing a long lullaby to the sleeping man
Grab some zzz's, sleeping man
Said goodnight again to the sleeping man
See you in your dreams sleeping man.
Who's that knocking at the bottom of my door? Who's that lying on the floor Like a fallen meteor It's the sleeping man. Tomorrow just slipped away Whatever happened to yesterday You play you pay Sleeping man. Sandman please leave him alone Let him out of the twilight zone Just for once let him answer the phone Sleeping man. Sandman please leave him alone Let him out of the twilight zone Just for once let him answer the phone Sleeping man. After supper eyes shut tight Night is day and day is night He's not a pretty sight Sleeping man. Face down on the table, drink in his hand He doesn't hear the noise of the band With a head full of ideas and eyes full of sand Lies the sleeping man. Sandman please leave him alone Let him out of the twilight zone Just for once let him answer the phone Sleeping man. Sandman please leave him alone Let him out of the twilight zone Just for once let him answer the phone Sleeping man. (Guitar Solo) Sing a long lullaby to the sleeping man Grab some zzz's, sleeping man Said goodnight again to the sleeping man See you in your dreams sleeping man. Explain Request ×
