Been fighting with my sheets And nearly crying in my sleep Yes, I'm battling that well-taught gripe The most restraining type You should have racing stripes

The light it fidgets through The thoughts'll soon revert to you About as bashful as a tribal dance The first and final chance And cause the audience
Of frighteners and fiends Divided up into two teams When the acrobat fell off the beam She broke everyone's hearts I'm pinned down by the dark
