CAKE lyrics : "When You Sleep"

when you sleep where do your fingers go?
what do your fingers know
what do your fingers show

where do your fingers go

when you sleep

do they tremble on the edge of the bed
or do you fold them neatly by your head
do they clench like claws against your own skin

when you're living your day al over again

when you sleep

when you sleep where do your fingers go?
what do your fingers know
what do your fingers show

where do your fingers go

do they play guitar in a latin bar

are they strangers or lovers
do they drive your car
are they swimming submissively

sex acts of life
or just cutting through jello with a very sharp knife


now zeus was a womanizer
always on the make
but hera usually punished her that zeus was one to take


when you sleep where do your fingers go?


are they pulling out weeds from the dusty soil
but then never rewarded with the fruits of their toil
are they scratching their nails on the chalkboards of death

only seeking attention when everyone in the room has left

when you sleep

when you sleep where do your fingers go?
what do your fingers know
what do your fingers show

where do your fingers go

when you sleep

do they tremble on the edge of the bed
or do you fold them neatly by your head
