Stay awake don't rest your head
Don't lie down upon your bed
While the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake don't close your eyes


Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillows soft and neat
You're not sleepy as you seem

Stay awake don't nod and dream
Stay awake don't nod and dream

You're not sleepy
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake don't nod and dream
Stay awake don't nod and dream
