[Verse] Some day is always a glum day You lose all your spirit; Bleak day, that workaway weekday And oh how you fear it! Closing, your heavy eyes closing Till nearly asleep, dear Dozing, while dreaming dozing Your troubles will keep, dear; Sleepyhead, you'd better go dreaming Sleepyhead, don't open your eyes!
Sleepyhead, or why should you worry away? You'd better hurry away Into your daydreams Gay dreams! Sleepyhead, when tears come a-streaming Oh, weepyhead, no sorrow is wise; Sleep away Deep away Keep away your sighs Sleepyhead, don't open your eyes!
