No Sleep Till the Devil Knows When Lyrics

by ESP

Verse:

Endless screaming like banished banshees,

Sent from the 7th depths of hell.

The blistering earache, impales through the heart, All around corpse of angels fell.

War enrages with no signs of ceasing,

It seems like all hopes are lost.

Left with nothing but despair and horror, The last two battle on!

Conjuring, the cloak of sleep,

Promising the last chance of silence.

Summoning the Sandman, the lord of all dreams, To end it all without violence...

Pre-Chorus:

Breathing slowly, calmly awaiting, Eyes are closing...

slumber takes over.... NOT!

Chorus:

No Sleep till, No Sleep till, No Sleep Till, No Sleep!

No Sleep Till, No Sleep Till, No Sleep till the Devil knows when!

Spoken Bridge:

We are the last two survivors, facing the devil herself.

She has no need for her underlings or her disciples from hell. Sleep will eventually conquer but patiently we wait,

As seconds tick by the hour is getting late...

Clean Vocal Verse:

Hey you devil, don’t say a word, I’m gonna buy you a mockingbird.

If that mockingbird won’t sing,

I’m gonna buy you a diamond ring.

If that diamond ring turns brass, I’m gonna buy you a looking glass

If that looking glass goes broke, I’m gonna get you a billy goat

If that billy goat won’t pull,

I’m gonna get you cart and bull

If the cart and bull won’t bend,

There’ll be no sleep till the devil knows when!
