[Verse 1]
I spend these waking hours
Looking for the sandman
I spend these waking hours
Looking for his master plan
I'll wait till morning till he comes to my house
And he'll give no warning
When he's knocking me out

[Chorus]
So sing me to sleep tonight
And don't bring me back to life

[Verse 2]
I spend these waking hours
Looking for the sandman
I spend these waking hours
Looking for his master plan
He will be sorry when he comes to my house
I'll show no mercy till the lights go out

[Chorus]
So sing me to sleep tonight
And don't bring me back to life
We're waiting for the sandman
But he never hears the call
We're waiting for the sandman
But he never hears the call
We're waiting for the sandman
But he never hears the call
We're waiting for the sandman
But he never hears the call
