Go To Sleep

Dan Bern

Enough of this throat singing already
If you wanna sing two notes at once
Why don't you do like everyone else
Get a multi-track machine 
Lay 'em down separately
Make a little harmony
Maybe a bass track 
Like one from the Rolling Stones
None of this long lost art 
This archaic stuff
Go out and make something

If you wanna make some dough
You oughta invest in my company
We're putting barcodes 
On the fetuses
Using ultrasound 
And laser technology
We used to do babies 
But some of them still got mixed up
This takes care of that

My love, go to sleep 
We'll wake you tomorrow
My love, go to sleep 
We'll wake you tomorrow

There's some tomatoes 
Chemically engineered
They come out square 
To fit in boxes
There's some people 
Chemically engineered
They come out square 
To fit in boxes
I'm sitting on the roof today 
All by myself
Not saying nothing 
To no one
I'm sitting on the roof today 
All by myself
Not saying nothing 
Goodbye

My love go to sleep 
We'll wake you tomorrow
My love go to sleep 
We'll wake you tomorrow
