Nephew - Bedtime Now lyrics

My middlename was ”never go to bed”

no curtains in the world would draw my weary head

for hours and hours and hours my eyes

were hungry in the night

eating the hours and eating the years - my tinted appetite

Is it bedtime now?

it's too late

Today, I crawl into bed

today, like the grown ups I met

for hours and hours and hours I sleep

a Radioheaded creep

with sheets and with pillows I fly into this grown up lie

Is it bedtime now?

it's too late

For me it's a shame

to have lost my middle name
