Sleeper

Lyrics

Tired night driver dawn Brakes clash with the lights on Dashboard panel neon sign London five, anywhere miles away He's been in the seat Under the sparkle sky Picking out the cats eyes Over the miles away I'm not her cover man Just she never did understand L'm not your best friend I'm just a sleeper You've been missing traffic Travelling in the underbelly Wonder 'bout the neighbourhood threat Thats hanging over Could you be the one they thought of Pulling out all the stops To catch you with your punch clock And take time just to knock you off Hes just a criminal Hes just a night keeper Don't think he'll upset you Cause he's just a sleeper Big black Billy Dan Didnae give a monkey d*** Took the road to sleep in And the river for to weep in Everyone was sure he took All that s*** for god's sake Now he's in the avenue Making plans for human means The man looks like nothing Comes on like a creeper Don't be fooled by nothing Hes just a sleeper Some folk don't rest up Or give up or shut up Or put up or back up From things that make the heart stop So dont go thinking that This is much sweeter Put up your fences Cause I'm the restless sleeper You think you've got the class war Beaten up and gone forever You know the troubles coming Riding on the sleeper
