Well I woke up this morning at a quarter to three
You know that’s far too early far too early for me
So I went back to bed until a quarter to four
Until I thought I heard somebody knock at the door
People I heard a rumour sleeping is good
Woke up this morning at a quarter to five
The neighbours threw a party and they’d started to jive
So I went back to bed until a quarter to six
How I wish I’d made my room out of a million bricks
People I heard a rumour sleeping is good
Woke up this morning at a quarter to eight
I wondered if that train I caught was gonna be late
So I went back to bed until a quarter to nine
I knew that all my worries would all turn out fine
People I heard a rumour sleeping is good
I woke up this morning at a quarter to ten
I thought I heard the voices of a couple of men
So I went back to bed until a quarter to Noon
I slept right through an Earthquake that was felt on the Moon
People I heard a rumour sleeping is good
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up
People I heard a rumour sleeping is good
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up
Don’t wake me up
People I heard a rumour sleeping is good
