Laugh Yourself to Sleep

hun, you're drunk

now close your eyes

your little hands

your loaded tongue

name the strangers in your mind

call them Angels just for fun

barbewire fence your dance across

tell your mama we'll be alright

kick the wall untill your leg falls off

and, laugh yourself to sleep tonight

walk through walls that disappear

and spend your money on a clown

who wears your clothes and drinks your beer

and spreads your gospel all around

jump through fire and land so soft

stare untill you see the light

kick the wall untill your leg falls off

and, laugh yourself to sleep tonight

let me hold you close

I think we're gonna fall

but it ain't for me to tell you

when your way above it all

cuz you know it all

now you get to go in style

that yellow moon a little luck

your pretty mischief smile

you tell them when they've seen enough

burn your bridges walk across

head to town to see the fight

kick the wall untill your leg falls off

and, laugh yourself to sleep tonight

let me hold you close

I think we're gonna fall

but it ain't for me to tell you

when your way above it all

cuz you know it all
