The twelfth track on Ezra Furman’s third solo album, Perpetual Motion People, “Can I Sleep in Your Brain?” sees Furman asking a stranger – whether metaphorically or otherwise – to “rest [her] bones in [their] head”, likely as a means of escaping from the Perpetual Motion of her life.
The album near...
[Chorus]
Can I sleep in your brain tonight, stranger?
Can I rest my bones in your head?
I won't make too much noise while I stay here
I just need some kind of shelter
[Verse 1]
Anywhere I try to go (Oh)
I'm still stuck in my own skull (Oh)
And lately, that's no kind of place to call home (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
All the walls are falling down (Oh)
Garbage lying all around (Oh)
Is there maybe room in your temporal lobe?
[Chorus]
Can I sleep in your brain tonight, stranger?
Can I spend just one night on your mind?
I can't live with this pain, with this anger
And I need someplace else to go
[Breakdown]
I wanna sleep in your brain
I wanna wake you up early
I wanna make you black coffee if you like (Yeah)
I'll do whatever's required of me
To have the roof of your brain above me
I've got nowhere else I can stay tonight
[Outro]
Can I sleep in your brain? (Oh, I)
Can I sleep in your brain? (Oh, I)
Can I sleep in your brain?
(Ayy) Can I sleep in your brain?
Can I sleep in your—?
Can I—, can I—
Can I sleep in your brain?
Can I— can I come over?
Can I sleep in your brain?
Can I come over?
Can I– can I sleep—?
Can I come over?
Oh, sleep in your brain?
Can I– can I sleep—?
Can I come over?
Can I sleep in your brain?
