lyrics

Goodbye my baby, you're too hard to obey/ I got so sleepy trying i had to crawl away/ No shattered glass, no cymbal clang/ Nothing but a squeak when tired armies try to speak/ Sleep now, my baby, that all is said and done/ Let's hope the grass grows back to cover up the guns/ No ticker tape, no marching band, no cheering in the street when tired trumpets blow defeat/ And good hearts go on like an under-watered cactus, or a boring movie/ But I'm having fun/ I'm not tired anymore and it was just an American dream/ Goodbye my baby/ Godspeed
