Feel the matress tense beneath me   Like the muscle of nonsleepy   Feathers flexing will defeat me   And it vexes me completely      And the hexes heat covertly   Like a slow low-flying turkey   Like a Texan drying jerky   But his meaty mitts can't hurt me      With my steely will compounded   In a mighty mound that's hounded   By the snap my steel string sounded   Just before your snores unwound it      And in store are dreams so daring   That the night can't stop from staring   I'll swim sweetly as a herring   Through the ether, not despairing      Go to sleep, you stunning sky   Gently creep cunning by   A quiet hum is amplified   By your thumb   That you suck dry      Hundred raging waters snare the lonely sigh   Hold your breath and clasp at Cassiopiea      Hundred raging waters snare the lonely sigh   Hold your breath and clasp at Cassiopiea   Cassiopiea, Cassiopiea   Oh oh, Cassiopiea
