Sandman

Mr. Moon has come a-calling In his violet dressing gown Foxes in the undergrowth Laying the scent home Fill your eyes with wild things Sandman takes you where he will I have packed a little traveling bag The train tracks lead home Catch a lyric while you're gone The hero slays the dreadful beast Sandman he will bring you home When the dawn breaks from the East. The tinker, the tailor, The beggar and the mouse Are all tucked up in their Gingerbread house A splash of truth, a pack of lies And just a pinch of fools gold All tied up with bits of string into a bow One hundred costume changes in a little travelling bag Left unattended beside the door. If there is no hero Then who will slay the dreadful beast ? And who will bring you home ? Sandman sandman can't bring you home When the dawn breaks from the east I have put my mark upon the map I found the missing breadcrumb track It always lead to this place Sandman takes you where he will He blows the sadness from your face Mr moon has come a-calling In his violet dressing gown Foxes in the undergrowth Laying the scent home The tinker, the tailor, the beggar and the mouse Are all tucked up in their gingerbread house.
