Lyrics

Shut up and go to bed Put the pillow under your head I'm sick and tired of all of your worries Shut up and say goodnight Say your prayers and turn out the lights I'm sick and tired, all of your sob stories Shut up and shut your eyes No more histrionics, no more college tries Stop pushing, stop shoving, stop straining Shut your mouth and button your lip You're a late night faucet that's got a drip All you're doing is merely complaining The excuse that you're crazy is useless You're not biting, you're barking You're toothless But you're ruthless Shut up and count some sheep Do me a favour, don't bitch in your sleep No more agony, please, no more sorrow Shut up and catch some Z's Ice cream with a cherry plus a big pretty please I promise we'll resume tomorrow Goodnight
