The Decemberists

Better Not Wake the Baby

Kick a hole in the hallway

While singing like a painted lady

Use your skull like a cannonball

But it better not wake the baby

How long will this go on?

How long, indeed?

You can bang a drum 'till the money's all gone

But it better not wake the baby

Make your moan of your lot in life

Split your mind half crazy

Gouge your eyes with a butter knife

But it better not wake the baby

How long will this go on?

How long, indeed?

You can bang a drum 'till the money's all gone

But it better not wake the baby

Drown yourself in crocodile tears

Curse the gods what made 'ye

Pine away for your better years

But it better not wake the baby

How long will this go on?

How long, indeed?

You can bang a drum 'till the money's all gone

But it better not wake the baby

How long will this go on?

How long, indeed?

You can bang a drum 'till the money's all gone

But it better not wake the baby
