Bedtime Stories Lyrics & Chords By Matthew Lien

Everything is so unclear, how could we ever let this happen here
And with the turn of every page, another picture worth a thousand tears
Reading on with great dismay, another tanker has lost its way
And ninety million gallons spilled into the sea today

Don't make me tell bedtime stories
'Bout how it was when the Earth still had trees
Don't make me tell bedtime stories
Livin'in a world of why and might have been
Tellin' all about how I remember when
You can see it everywhere, we're adding colour to our atmosphere
Still we let the fires burn, we haven't got a lot of room up there
Now it seems this whole affair is burnin' holes in an ozone layer
Well maybe I'm mistaken, but don't we need to breathe this air
Don't make me tell bedtime stories

Think it's time we recongnize, we've got a problem in paradise
'Bout how it was when the Earth still had trees
Don't make me tell bedtime stories
Livin'in a world of why and might have been
Tellin' all about how I remember when
Think it's time we recongnize, we've got a problem in paradise
Angels fall from troubled skies, wolves lay bleeding out upon the ice
Some would say "just carry on, close your eyes now and don't think twice"
Well, given our direction, this doesn't really seem like sound advice
Don't make me tell bedtime stories
'Bout how it was when the Earth still had trees
Don't make me tell bedtime stories
