Republic of Our Bed

The sun behind the curtain says "Its time for getting up" But that doesn't bother us 'Cos we are an island When we pull the covers overhead In the Republic of our Bed Where we could fall asleep for hours But they can't touch you and me We've got immunity Or we could lie awake in the afternoon Watching the rockets overhead There's something to be said for the Republic of our Bed Would anybody miss us? Would anybody care? If they looked around and we weren't there It's not like the universe Would come crashing to a halt And if it did its not our fault 'Cos we could fall asleep for hours But they can't touch you and me We've got immunity Or we could lie awake in the afternoon Watching the rockets overhead There's something to be said for the Republic of our Bed I hear the south of France Will take your breath away This time of year But under the circumstances We'll stay right here The sun behind the curtain says, "I hate to interrupt, But its time to break this party up" We could fall asleep for hours But they can't touch you and me We've got immunity Or we could lie awake in the afternoon Watching the rockets overhead There's something to be said for the Republic of our Bed There's something to be said for the Republic of our Bed There's something to be said for the Republic of our Bed
