THE CURE lyrics : "sleep when i'm dead"

Sleep When I'm Dead (MSG/Fuse version)




Sleep when I'm dead, you angels


I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said

Sleep when I'm dead, you angels


I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said


Sleep when I'm dead, you angels

Well until then...





Told me I could run the world

If I kept it clean


Told me I could be the chosen one


If I took one for the team

And it's the only way to be


Never think it isn't fair


It's a green-eyed panic (pride?)

To the edge of nowhere





Give it to the chick

And see if it ticks


Give it to the (kid?)


See if it sticks

Give it to the wonderful, wonderful me


I'll let you know on my return just how it is


with all the other boys and girls




The whole f**king other world


The way they grew to (be?)

(The love they feel about me?)





Sleep when I'm dead, you angels

I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said


Sleep when I'm dead, you angels


I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said




Told me I could run the world


If I kept it quiet

They said I could be the man


If I took it out of sight

So in a monkey suit of (pins?)


Having fun with all your friends

How a casual (act can pull?)

All this world to pieces




Give it to the (bunny? bonnie?)


And see if she kicks

Give it to the (puppy?)

See if it sticks


Give it to the wonderful, wonderful me

I'll let you know when I return on how it is

with all the other boys and girls




The whole f**king other world

The way they feel inside


The why they never make it (by?)

The way they are inside

The why I never take the time

The way they are inside


The why I never act surprised

Yeah, just how it is




Sleep when I'm dead, you angels

I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said

Sleep when I'm dead, you angels

I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said


Sleep when I'm dead, you angels

I'll sleep when I'm dead, I said

Sleep when I'm dead, you angels


I'll sleep when I'm dead

Well until then...



I may as well be tired, I think

Before I lay me down to dream
