Album: There Goes Rhymin’ Simon

St. Judy’s Comet

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 St. Judy’s Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds
In its wake

I long to see St. Judy’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 eyes?
Ain’t nothing flashing but the fireflies

Well, I sang it once
And I sang it twice
I’m gonna sing it three times more
Gonna 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

Won’t you run, come see St. Judy’s Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds
In its wake

I long to see St. Judy’s Comet
Sparkle in your eyes
When you awake

Little boy, little boy
Won’t you lay your body down?
Little boy, little boy
Won’t you close your weary eyes?
Ain’t nothing flashing but the fireflies

Ooh, little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is?
Well, the hour of your bedtime’s
Long been past

Though I know you’re fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
That you’re fading fast
