Sleeping Man Lyrics - John Entwistle

Who's that knocking at the bottom of my door? 

Who's that lying on the floor 

Like a fallen meteor 

It's the sleeping man. 

Tomorrow just slipped away 

Whatever happened to yesterday 

You play you pay 

Sleeping man. 

Sandman please leave him alone 

Let him out of the twilight zone 

Just for once let him answer the phone 

Sleeping man. 

Sandman please leave him alone 

Let him out of the twilight zone 

Just for once let him answer the phone 

Sleeping man. 

After supper eyes shut tight 

Night is day and day is night 

He's not a pretty sight 

Sleeping man. 

Face down on the table, drink in his hand 

He doesn't hear the noise of the band 

With a head full of ideas and eyes full of sand 

Lies the sleeping man. 

Sandman please leave him alone 

Let him out of the twilight zone 

Just for once let him answer the phone 

Sleeping man. 

Sandman please leave him alone 

Let him out of the twilight zone 

Just for once let him answer the phone 

Sleeping man. 

(Guitar Solo) 

Sing a long lullaby to the sleeping man 

Grab some zzz's, sleeping man 

Said goodnight again to the sleeping man 

See you in your dreams sleeping man.
