Naptime
I'm rubbing my eyes and my talking is hoarse
and I haven't slept in three hours, of course
Snap me up quick, Daddy! No time to lose
I'm squirming and crying and trying to snooze
Ah thank you my Daddy. Now hold me a while
Rock me and sing in your own special style
I love you, you know, and your voice soft and deep
It's perfect for listening as I fall asleep
And if I could just say one quick thing about you?
You look like maybe you could use a nap, too.
