Won't you run, come see St Judy's Comet roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds in it's wake.

Ooh when you wake awake

Verse 3
-------
Well I sang it once and I sang it twice, I'm gonna sing it three times more
I'm gonna stay until your resistance is overcome
Because if I can't sing my boy to sleep, well it makes your famous
Daddy look so dumb, look so dumb.
