Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray my sanity to keep.
For if some peace I do not find,
I'm pretty sure I'll lose my mind.
I pray I'll find a little quiet,
Far from the daily Family Riot.
May I lie back ..... not have to think.
About what they're stuffing down the sink,
Or who they're with, or where they're at,
And what they're doing to the cat.
I ask for time all to myself.
(Did something just fall off a shelf)?
To cuddle in my nice, soft bed.
(Oh, no! Another goldfish ..... dead)!
Some silent moments for Goodness Sake!
(Did I just hear a window break)?
And that I need not cook or clean...
..... Well, Heck, I've got the right to dream!
Yes, now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray my wits about me keep,
But as I look around I know,
I must have lost them long ago!
