about

lyrically, written with my older son in mind, Subliminally ( ?) and strangely similar to "We're Off You Know" from "HOPE". I heard the album ONCE in 1977!
This song came to me ( as the principle writer in 1997.note by Joel )

lyrics

SLEEPYHEAD

WORDS: JOEL PIRARD MUSIC: JOEL PIRARD, DON PITZ, ARNO TIETJE C.1997 with apologies to ( KLAATU)

WERE OFF YOU KNOW, ITS TIME TO GO
TIME TO GET UP, TIME TO START ANOTHER DAY
GET OUT OF BED, YOU OLD SLEEPYHEAD
THERES NOTHING TO IT, JUST SET YOUR MIND TO IT

SO PULL DOWN THE SHEETS, AND TAKE A DEEP BREATH
GET ON YOUR FEET, AND TAKE A FEW STEPS
GET OFF YOUR HIGH BED AND LOOK ALL AROUND
HEY SLEEPYHEAD, GET OUT OF BED NOW

TAKE A LOOK UP, BUT DONT TAKE YOUR TIME
GOT TO GO ONWARDS TOWARDS A NEW RHYME
AND IF YOU FEEL THE NEED TO RUN DOWN THE HALL
YOUVE GOT TO DO IT, YOUVE JUST GOT TO MAKE IT
