Sleepy Sally

won't you wake up Sleepy Sally
with that needle in her arm
the wives make up lies for Sleepy Sally
fractured secrets corrupt and maligned
so won't you wake up numb Sleepy Sally
once so tender now barren and damned
violated child with the tortured eyes
I hope she adapts before she dies
before she dies
