Watching you sleep in the blue light From the clock radio by the bed Rattle of wires in the cortex Got my own radio speaking in tongues I will make you peanut butter toast I will make you eggs and orange juice I will dress well in my finest shirt I will dress finely for your birthday You sleep so quietly Outside it's your birthday You sleep so quietly The hole in the wall where the pickles struck The hole in the wall where the pickles struck Glints like the edge of a cool bayonet The hands on the clock stand in freeze frame Spin like a stop motion carousel I will make you peanut butter toast I will make you eggs and orange juice I will dress well in my finest shirt I will dress finely for your birthday You sleep so quietly Outside it's your birthday You sleep so quietly
