Bedtime Now Lyrics by Nephew

Swimming Time

2000

[Verse 1]
My middle name was 'never go to bed'
No curtains in the world would draw my weary head
For hours and hours and hours my eyes were hungry in the night
Eating the hours and eating the years, my tinted appetite
My tinted appetite

[Verse 2]
Oh, it's such a pity, it's such a shame
To waste a single frame
With sheets and with pillows I lie
A reason to deny

[Chorus]
Is it bedtime now?
It's too late
It's too late
Is it bedtime now?
It's too late
It's too late

[Verse 3]
Today, I crawl into bed
Today, like the grown-ups I met
For hours and hours and hours I sleep a Radioheaded creep
With sheets and with pillows I fly into this grown-up lie

[Chorus]
Is it bedtime now?
It's too late
It's too late
Is it bedtime now?
It's too late
It's too late

[Bridge]
For me, it's a shame
To have lost my middle name
To sleep unaware
Not even attempted to care

[Chorus]
Is it bedtime now?
It's too late
It's too late
Is it bedtime now?
It's too late
It's too late

[Outro]
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na
