I'm Only Sleeping
Lennon/McCartney

Lyrics:
When I wake up early in the morning,
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream

Please don't wake me, no
don't shake me
Leave me where I am
I'm only sleeping

Everybody seems to think I'm lazy
I don't mind, I think they're crazy
Running everywhere at such a speed
Till they find, there's no need

Please don't spoil my day
I'm miles away
And after all
I'm only sleeping

Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time

Lying there and staring at the ceiling
Waiting for a sleepy feeling

Please don't spoil my day
I'm miles away
And after all
I'm only sleeping

Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time

When I wake up early in the morning,
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream

Please don't wake me, no
don't shake me
Leave me where I am
I'm only sleeping 		Availability:

What Goes On? Anomalies

0:35
Click (right channel) just before lead vocals comes in.
* 1:08
Three clicks just after "...sleeping". Sounds like someone is snapping fingers to measure out bars. You can also hear the printthrough of a backwards guitar. Best using OOPS.
1:57
Voice says "Yawn Paul", and 2:01, he does!
2:34
Click before lead vocals comes in. Edit?
Note: I did not write or compile these anomalies. Please don't email me with new anomalies and please read the WGO Info page.
