The Decemberists - Better Not Wake the Baby Lyrics

Giggle hole in the hallway wall
Singin' like a painted lady
Use your skull like a cannon ball
But it better not wake the baby

How long will this go on?
How long will it be?
Bang your drum till the money's all gone
But it better not wake the baby

Make you moan of your lot in life
Spit your mind half crazy
Gouge your eyes for the better?
But it better not wake the baby

How long will this go on?
How long will it be?
Bang your drum till the money's all gone
But it better not wake the baby

Drown yourself in crocodile tears
Curse the god what made thee
Find a way for your banner years
But it better not wake the baby

How long will this go on?
How long will it be?
Bang your drum till the money's all gone
But it better not wake the baby

How long will this go on?
How long will it be?
Bang your drum till the money's all gone
But it better not wake the, better not wake the, better not wake the baby
