Lyrics Mother May I Sleep with Danger? - Joy Crookes
Mother
may
I
sleep
with
danger,
please
It's
been
knocking
on
my
door
since
I
was
seventeen
Oh,
oh,
and
you
saw
but
you
choose
to
ignore
But
now
it's
more
than
a
wish,
it's
a
dream
Now
I
don't
understand
how
you
can
hold
me
back
You
said
"Baby
learn
your
lessons
when
you
step
on
cracks"
Oh,
there's
no
time
to
fall,
existence
would
call
And
see
experimenting
And
I
guess
there's
just
no
other
way
I've
been
drawn
to
a
new
escape,
ay
'Cause
I'm
wearing
bamboo
and
I'm
picking
up
zoots
I've
slipped
away
Now
I'm
tonguing
on
a
Rizla
And
you
sachi
snows
a
deal
for
us
Oh,
and
dangers
got
me
wrapped
up
'round
his
thumb
But
it's
no
trap
'Cause
I'm
in
love
I
said
I'm
in
love
I
said
I'm
in
love
Yeah
oh
oh
oh
I
said
I'm
in
love
I
said
I'm
in
love
Love
Mother
may
I
sleep
with
danger,
please
It's
been
knocking
on
my
door
since
I
was
seventeen
Oh,
oh,
and
you
saw
but
you
choose
to
ignore
But
now
it's
more
than
a
wish,
it's
a
dream
Now
I
don't
understand
how
you
can
hold
me
back
You
said
baby
learn
your
lessons
when
you
step
on
cracks
So
no,
there's
no
time
to
fall
how
you
go,
oh
I
get
what
I
want,
you
see
'Cause
I
like
to
tread
so
carefully
And
you
won't,
won't,
won't,
won't
ever
know
So
mother
may
sleep
with
danger,
please
It's
been
knocking
n
my
door
since
I
was
seventeen
Oh,
oh,
and
you
saw
But
now
it's
more
than
a
wish,
it's
a
dream
