Alice Cooper - Can't Sleep, Clowns Will Eat Me Lyrics

Don't sing me lullabies
I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes
It's true, I'm doomed
Till dawn shines through

Got too many things to do
Got friends to see, I can't miss a thing
It's true, I'm through
I'm screwed, unglued

I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes
I never close my eyes
You see, they're always there with funny hair
Oh, I'm so scared

It happens to me every night
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
They always want to take a bite
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me

And if you think this isn't real
I'll show you wounds that never heal
To them, I'm just a happy meal
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me

Make the coffee black as night
Help me through the night
I know their appetite for me
I'm meat, but I'm sweet as can be

And if I do too much booze
I begin to snooze
I hear the big old floppy shoes
It's true, I'm stew, unchewed

I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes
I never close my eyes
See, they're always there with that funny hair
Oh, I'm so scared

It happens to me every night
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
They always want to take a bite
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me

And if you think this isn't real
I'll show you wounds that never heal
To them, I'm just a happy meal
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
