Stay awake, don't rest your head
Don't lie down upon your bed
As the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
Stay awake, don't close your eyes

Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream

Stay awake, don't rest your head
Don't lie down upon your bed
And while the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
