One of five songs about a ship crew that builds a robot. This song is about the legal ramifications that the ship crew faced after unleashing the powerful machine they built into their everyday world, the results of that decision, and how they are sure they will be sentenced to death as a result.
[Chorus]
We won't be sleeping in our autumn beds
We won't be sleeping in our autumn beds
We won't be sleeping in our autumn beds
We won't be sleeping in our autumn beds
[Verse 1]
October came
Our case got stuck with the DA again
They pulled up the welcome mat
So many times they hurt their back
As sure as clocks are bleeding time
We'll show up early just to wait in line
[Bridge]
We won't be sleeping, we won't be sleeping
We won't be sleeping, we won't be sleeping
[Verse 2]
As August came
Our case is drawing to an end
They said guilty so many times
All I heard was just the buzzing lights
As sure as lead sinks were the same
We're just more laundry that they need to hang
[Chorus]
We won't be sleeping in our autumn beds
We won't be sleeping in our autumn beds
[Outro]
We won't be sleeping, we won't be sleeping
We won't be sleeping, we won't be sleeping
We won't be sleeping in our autumn beds
We won't be sleeping, we won't be sleeping
We won't be sleeping, we won't be sleeping
We won't be sleeping in our autumn beds
