Artist/Band: Paul Simon
Lyrics for Song: St. Judy's Comet
Lyrics for Album: There Goes Rhymin' Simon [1973]



Words & music by Paul Simon



Oo, little sleepy boy

Do you know what time it is?

Well the hour of your bedtime's long been past

And though I know you're fighting it

I can tell when you rub your eyes

You're fading fast, oh fading fast



Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet

Roll across the skies

And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake

I long to see St. Judy's Comet

Sparkle in your eyes when you awake

Oh, when you wake, wake



Little boy

Won't you lay your body down

Little boy

Won't you close your weary eyes

Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies



Well I sang it once and I sang it twice

I'm going to sing it three times more

I'm going to stay 'til your resistance

Is overcome

'Cause if I can't sing my boy to sleep

Well it makes your famous daddy look so dumb

look so dumb



Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet

Roll across the skies

And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake

I long to see St. Judy's Comet

Sparkle in your eyes when you awake

Oh, when you wake, wake



Little boy, little boy

Won't you lay your body down

Little boy, little boy

Won't you close your weary eyes

Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies



Oo, little sleepy boy

Do you know what time it is?

Well the hour of your bedtime's long been past

And though I know you're fighting it

I can tell when you rub your eyes

You're fading fast, oh fading fast
