Weary & Bleary Eyed - Ed Harcourt

Morphine sedates and sends you to sleep

What I would give for a sleep that was deep

I can hear birds calling my name

What I would give to send them away

Cos I’m still awake and weary and bleary eyed

I switched on my bedside light

Took out my shotgun instead

Fired twenty rounds of pure lead

The land of nod the trees are white

The sky is black, it’s always the night

Sleeping pills do the trick

The candle’s reached the end of the wick

It flickers and feels so weary and bleary eyed

I switched on my bedside light

Took out my shotgun instead

Fired twenty rounds of pure lead

(one verse 'oooh's)

…weary and bleary eyed

I switched on my bedside light

Took out my shotgun instead

Fired twenty rounds of pure lead

Send me to sleep (x8)

To sleep (repeat and fade)
