How Do You Sleep? - Take 1 / Raw Studio Mix

What? (Did you change it?)
Not so far, when we hear it

So, I want you all go get on it
Bam-bam-bam-bam
Bam-bam-bam-bam
Bam-bam-bam-bam, tiss
Bam-bam-bam-bam, tiss
Bam-bam-bam-bam, tiss

Yeah, okay, let's go from the top, then
(The bass, rhythm instruments, you know, not too heavy...)
What, who are the basic rhythm instruments?
I just meant like the rhythm guitars, bass, the drums, just-, you know, straight (yeah, yeah)
Otherwise, it gets jammy

Okay, one, two, a-one, two, three, four

So Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise
You better see right through that mother's eyes
Those freaks was right when they said you was dead
The big mistake you made was in your head

Oh, how do you sleep?
Oh, how do you sleep at night?

You live with straights who told you, you was king
Jump when your momma tell you anything
The only thing you done was yesterday
Since you've gone, you're just another day

Whoa, how do you sleep, brother?
Oh, how do you sleep at night?
(Hit it)

No, no, no, no, no
See you're emphasizing, then
You're throwing everybody off, so start again
I wanna get you to try and do it, so that I don't have to sing the solo
Do it from George's solo
One, two, a-one, two, three, four

But pretty soon you'll see what they can do
You must have learned something in all those years

Ba-da-da
Oh, how do you sleep?
Oh, how do you sleep at night?

A pretty face may last a year or two
But pretty soon they'll see what you can do
The sound you make is muzak to my ears
You must have learned something in all those years

Oh, how do you sleep, brother?
Oh, how do you sleep at night?
Nicky!

Pretty soon, they'll see what you can do
All those years

Oh, this is the fade out
How do you sleep at night?
(Tiss, tiss, tiss)

(What's that?)
That's me trying to emphasize an off beat that I think it should go
Oh, dah, dah, dah, do you sleep?
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Tiss, bah, ooh
(Sounds great when you do that, you fatten them up)
With me voice, you mean? (I'm wonderin') yeah, but I'm-, I'll
(You can but it sound-, well, you could 'cause we got two other tracks)
Yeah, I see, I see

Oh, bah, tiss, dah, do you sleep at night
Tiss, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, oh
Dah, dah, dah

Dah, you know, what's the sound like?
(What you been doing with it "tiss", that was one)
Yeah, I know (but nobody's doing that now)
Yeah, do you-, do you think you can do it on the cymbal, Alan?
(I mean, nobody's doing an accent on that beat) yeah (going down)
I know, I know, that's why I was hinting in the earphones
