Liner Notes

#fuc #longneckedconcert

Lyrics

Intro: (D) (G)
(G) I could never get my head around py(Em)jamas
How (A) people sleep in clothes is beyond (D) me
When I (G) climb in bed I'm like a new born (Em) baby
My (D) body and my spirit feel so (G) free

(G) When I'm forced by exceptional circum(Em)stances
To (A) sleep in my clothes, I barely (D) sleep
I (G) can't get off to dreamland in an (Em) instant
I spend (D) many hours simply counting (G) sheep

I (Bm) dread the thought of being an in-(Em)patient
Where (Bm) pyjamas are certainly de-ri(D)gueur
(Bm) Hospital would be a torture (Em) for me
If py(D)jamas there I am forced to (G) wear

(G) We have to put on clothes even in (Em) summer
You can't go (A) naked in the city because it's (D) rude
So why would (G) anyone ever give up the (Em) freedom
To (D) sleep as nature made us in the (G) nude!
Try it! (D) Sleep as nature made us in the (G) nude!

I love this song, it bounces along so nicely. Your delivery of the vocals is wonderful and the lyrics are so fun. Nice skirmishing!

This made me smile, and reminded me I'm sleepy!

Fun song! And glad to see you back here. Hope you have a great season.

My sentiment exactly! No pajamas here. lol Hey, this is really cute and fun.
Enjoyed listening.

Love the feel of this delightful tune! I feel we are cut from the same cloth, or lack thereof, when it comes to pajamas! Fun delivery and well developed rationale for birthday suit bed routines.

What a great jaunty tune - loving the bright uke and your lovely vocals. This is a very convincing argument for sleeping without pajamas - great take on the prompt. I love the part about being in the hospital - nice touch! I smiled the whole way through the song - thank you for that! Great skirmish!

Ha! I love this (though I kindly have to disagree 😆)! Very clever phrasing on verse 3. Catchy tune! Great work!

Beautiful fun song. Very enjoyable to listen to. I too don't know how you could come up with such beautiful songs in such a short time, and unlike me with just my piano, you are creating lyrics, music, singing and playing. That's 4 times more than I offer :)
