Sleeper, Awake

Rise up from your deep sleep, baby
Wake up from your slumber
I've got your anaesthetic ready
I have got your number
I'll do everything to help you
Make a smooth transition
The coffee's in the grinder
The key's in the ignition

Sleeper, Arise! Wipe the sleep from your eyes
Get outta your bed, quit playing dead
Sleeper, Awake! How much time does it take?
Lie there still and I'll kiss you
Oh, how I've missed you
Sleeper, Awake!

You've slept for a thousand years
But not like Sleeping Beauty
Maybe you're the princess
Who refused to do her duty
No poisoned spinning wheel
No blood upon the Singer
You just buried your alarm
And turned off the phone ringer

Sleeper, Arise! Wipe the sleep from your eyes
Get outta your bed, quit playing dead
Sleeper, Awake! How much time does it take?
Lie there still and I'll kiss you
Oh, how I've missed you
Sleeper, Awake!

Ah, but I'm scared
One touch of your cold cold lips, perhaps I'll join you there
But I don't care
This is a risk, this is a risk
This is a kiss, this is a kiss

Sleeper, Arise! Wipe the sleep from your eyes
Get outta your bed, quit playing dead
Sleeper, Awake! How much time does it take?
Lie there still and I'll kiss you
I can't resist you
Sleeper, Awake!
