Chorus:
Lend me your lap
I want to know
What it feels like
To sleep at night [repeat chorus]

1.
The night is cold and I grew colder
And as I wander I wonder if I would
Sleep tonight.

I close my eyes and I see creatures
Features of a mind that wants to
Sleep tonight

Hook:
Oh-to-lie-on-the-surface of the one
And-know-the-world’s-at-peace-inside-her.
And though-the-day-could-bring-much-hell
I-know-this-priest-would-fare-well
If only you’d…

Chorus:
Lend me your lap
I want to know
What it feels like
To sleep at night [repeat chorus]

2.
I’m growing sick of every crik now
And all my hope is gone
And I can’t sleep tonight

Couldn’t you. Be my. Lullaby.
So that I could finally sleep at night

Hook:
Oh-to-lie-on-the-surface of the one
And-know-the-world’s-at-peace-inside-her.
And though-the-day-could-bring-much-hell
I-know-this-priest-would-fare-well
If only you’d…

Chorus:
Lend me your lap
I want to know
What it feels like
To sleep at night [repeat chorus]

.... um.... yeah. "Lend me your Lap"...

B is for SideBar

i was going to talk about morality today. as in "whose morality do you subscribe to?" it was going to be deep if i say so myself. however, instead i will speak about requisitioning wombs . yes that's right... wombs . i was having a conversation with a girl who [i admit] i still go gaga over [cue the "paparazzi" audio clip]. we were talking about how stupid humanity had become and whether there was a point to saving them. "saving" in the sense of helping-them-expand-their-mental-space-just-a-smidgen-more kind of saving. she believed this exercise was futile and proclaimed that instead of trying to save this "dead-out" (my term not hers) generation, she was going to have kids. a means of passing on valuable information about culture and forward thinking and such. i laughed of course but she had a real point. i too have felt that this current landscape is all... dead-out, but never really saw procreation as a means of rebooting the system if...
