Paul Simon - St. Judy's Comet Lyrics
Words & music by paul simonOo, little sleepy boyDo you know what time it is?Well the hour of your bedtime's winding pastAnd though i know you're fighting itI can tell when you rub your eyesYou're fading fast, oh fading fastWon't you run come see st. judy's cometRoll across the skiesAnd leave a spray of diamonds in its wakeI long to see st. judy's cometSparkle in your eyes when you awakeOh, when you wake, wakeLittle boyWon't you lay your body downLittle boyWon't you close your weary eyesAin't nothing flashing but the firefliesWell i sang it once and i sang it twiceI'm going to sing it three times moreI'm going to stay 'til your resistanceIs overcome'cause if i can't sing my boy to sleepWell it makes your famous daddy look so dumbLook so dumbWon't you run come see st. judy's cometRoll across the skiesAnd leave a spray of diamonds in its wakeI long to see st. judy's cometSparkle in your eyes when you awakeOh, when you wake, wakeLittle boy, little boyWon't you lay your body downLittle boy, little boyWon't you close your weary eyesAin't nothing flashing but the firefliesOo, little sleepy boyDo you know what time it is?Well the hour of your bedtime's long been pastAnd though i know you're fighting itI can tell when you rub your eyesYou're fading fast, oh fading fast
