Hugh Cornwell - The Big Sleep lyric
Ringtone: Send The Big Sleep Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
Point your suit at me and take my breath away
Better in black and white and chrome I have to say
Now the big sleep
You play the hero and the villain every day
Equally charming in an unassuming way
See the girls weep
And now you've said goodbye a million hearts are sad
We were there with you Bob
You were my Mum and Dad
And now the big sleep
Suits and swimming trunks and clergy you don't care
Every one of them is scary we beware
I like Cape Fear
You're out of place in some but lift them from the mire
Much better in the heat to watch your pecs perspire
Then there's Angel Face
And when you leave a scene a thousand footsteps fall
Can't wait to see you back and walking very tall
Before the big sleep
Now sleep
No one around like you and Jimmy Stewart anymore
I'd like to don my suit and even up the score and try to take over
Painted ladies ain't so glamorous today
Take me back to 1941 today before Pearl Harbour
I've had some trials and tribulations just the same
You have to laugh a lot to stay ahead of the game
Before the big sleep
Now sleep
Ringtone: Send The Big Sleep Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
