A good a night (Sandman II)
At last I slept again
after three broken nights
it was about time though
good it found its balance
Cause when it fights back
it could become a problem
maybe an awakening nightmare
or a sleeping wanderer
Luckily for me it stabilized
so I don't have to duobt no more
that is, it solved itself
with some help of good friends
Who are these friends
I hear you wonder
well that little secret is mine
one I'm willing to tell you
Though when the time is ripe
with Sandman I have a score to settle
still cutting down on the expences
his fruits of labour comes from me
.................................................
To be continued I suppose
