Paul Simon - St. Judy's Comet lyrics

[Paul Simon - St. Judy's Comet lyrics]

Little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is?
Well the hour of your bedtime's
Long been past
And though I know you're fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
You're fading fast fading fast

Won't you run come see StJudy's Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds in it's wake
I long to see StJudy's Comet
Sparkle in your eyes when you awake

Little boy won't you lay your body down
Little boy won't you close your weary eye's
Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies

Well I sang it once then I sang it twice
I'm going to sing it three times more
I'm going to stay 'til your resistance
Is overcome
Cause if I can't sing my boy to sleep
Well it makes your famous daddy look so dumb
