In the concluding track for “The Laughing Apple”, Yusuf, whilst keeping in mind that, among other things, he’d still like to watch his grandchildren grow, acknowledges that he doesn’t have the capacity to watch them grow to have their own as he’ll likely die beforehand.
[Chorus]
I'm so sleepy, yeah
I'm so sleepy, yeah
I could lay my head on a piece of lead
And imagine it was a springy bed
'Cause I'm sleepy, sleepy
[Verse 1]
Soon I'm gonna slip away in the night
I feel it creeping, creeping, creeping
[Chorus]
I'm so sleepy, yeah
I'm so sleepy, yeah
I could lay my head on a book I read
And imagine it was a feather bed
'Cause I'm sleepy, sleepy
[Verse 2]
I can't keep my mind away from my dreams
I hear them calling, calling, calling
[Bridge]
Soon I'm gonna slip away
Soon I'm gonna slip away
Soon I'm gonna slip away
In the night I'm gonna slip away
I won't fight it
I'll just ride it
[Chorus]
I'm so sleepy, yeah
I'm so sleepy, yeah
I could lay my head on a piece of lead
And imagine it was a springy bed
'Cause I'm sleepy, sleepy, yeah
