Oedipus Songtext
von Matt Thiessen

A racecar bed
He never got to get tucked into one
Bedtime could have been so fun
Life will pass you by so fast

She said "Bow your head and get on your knees
And pray the Lord hands you the keys
To drive away your bad, bad dreams"
Ah, and fall asleep

Oedipus, Oedipus
Now isn′t this all a mess?
Trying to leave the oracle buried back in the past
Oedipus, Oedipus
Come on, get up, get dressed
Life will pass you by so fast


A racecar bed
Became a thought to get out of his head
He had grown too old for them
Life will pass you by so fast

She said "Bow your head and get on your knees
And pray the Lord hands you the keys
To drive away your bad, bad dreams"
Ah, and fall asleep (Fall asleep)

All he ever wanted was to lay his head
On the pillow, on a mattress, on a racecar bed
Every single night, he'd say the same old prayer
And he′d open up his eyes a little more aware

Oedipus, Oedipus
Now isn't this all a mess?
Trying to leave the oracle buried back in the past
Oedipus, Oedipus
Go and get up, get dressed
Life will pass you by so fast

Fall asleep
