When I wake up early in the morning,
Lift my head, I'm still jawing.
When I'm in the middle of a dream,
Stay in bed, float up stream.

Please don't wake me, no don't shake me,
Leave me where I am
I'm only sleeping.

Everybody seems to think I'm lazy,
I don't mind, I think they're crazy.
Running everywhere at such a speed
'Til they find there's no need.

Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all
I'm only sleeping.

Keeping an eye on the world going by my window,
Taking my time,
Lying there and staring at the ceiling,
Waiting for a sleepy feeling.

Please don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all
I'm only sleeping.

When I wake up early in the morning,
Lift my head, I'm still jawing.
When I'm in the middle of a dream,
Stay in bed, float up stream.

Please don't wake me, no don't shake me,
Leave me where I am
I'm only sleeping.
