"Lullaby For Grown-Ups"
:: l y r i c s ::
Your portfolio's okay, there'll be no crash
Your wallet is bursting with spendable cash
Your spouse isn't cheating
No one is beating
Your favorite team
You're free to dream

Your in-laws love you, but they don't want to stay
Your son is drug-free, and he just got an A
Your daughter is chaste
It was okay to taste
That chocolate cake
No weight it'll make

Ooh, close your weary eyes
And you will realize
Even though the fridge is broken
Tomorrow's mail
Shows there's a sale
You can buy one when you've woken

That misshapen mole growing on your hip
It is benign, like the sore on your spouse's lip
You're due for a raise
Being smart really pays
But to get your due
It's beddy-bye for you

That pain in your tooth really is quite banal
You just need a filling, not a root canal
The baby's not crying
The IRS is buying
Your tax return
You can keep what you earn

Ooh, sleep sweet grown-up
Your problems are sewn-up
Nothing in the world will harm you
Your family's safe
Your jammies don't chafe
But this insomnia should really alarm you.
