You and me Shaking off the family tree Watch the palms sway In the lonely California air Like Opium Ulra-violet eyes Sleep all day The world's gonna mess you around Sleep all day The world's gonna let you down Do you really wanna stay awake? Fruit falls from the trees On such a lonely, perfect day Can you carry on? With all your burdens gone Gone Cool like opium There's comfort when you're numb Sleep all day The world's gonna mess you around Sleep all day The world's gonna let you down Do you really wanna stay awake? Cool like opium There's comfort when you're numb Sleep all day Your world's gonna mess you around Sleep all day The world's gonna let you down Forget the family tree I sold you Drift away far, I'll let you Sleep all day The world's gonna mess you around Let you down Sleep will numb like opium
