Lullaby

Shut up and go to bed Put the pillow under your head I'm sick and tired of all your worries Shut up and say goodnight Say your prayers and turn off the light I'm sick and tired of all your sob-stories Shut up and shut your eyes No more histrionics, no more college tries Stop pushing, stop shoving, stop straining Shut your mouth and button your lip You're a late night faucet that's gotta drip All you're doing is merely complaining The excuse that you're crazy is useless You're not biting you're barking you're toothless But you're ruthless (you're Rufus) Shut up and count some sheep And do me a favor, don't bitch in your sleep No more agony, please no more sorrow Shut up and catch some Zs Ice cream with a cherry plus a big pretty please I promise we'll resume tomorrow...Goodnight.
