Paul Simon - St. Judy's Comet Lyrics
Little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is?
Well the hour ol your bedtime's
Long been past
I can tell when you rub your eyes
You're fading fast
Fading fast
Won't you run come see St.Judy's Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds
In its wake
I long to see St.Judy's Comet
Sparkle in your eyes
Little boy
Won't you lay your body down
Little boy
Won't you close your weary eye's
Ain't nothing flashing hut the fireflies
Well I sang it once
Then I sang it twice
I'm going tu sing it three times more
I'm going tu stay 'til your resistance
Is overcome
'Cause if I can't sing my boy tu sleep
Well it makes your famous daddy
Look so dumb
Wun't you run come see St.Judy's Comel
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds
In its wake
I long to see St.Judy's Comet
Sparkle in your eyes
When you awake
Little boy, little boy
Won't you lay your body down
Little boy, little boy
Won't you close your weary eyes
Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies
Oo little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is
Well the hour of your bedtime's
Long been past
Though I know you're fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
That you're fading fast.

Paul Simon St. Judy's Comet Comments
a back of the envelope song that struck a chord in my mind somewhere.
There is not a weak cut on this album. This is one of my faves.
This man is true Genius!
Paul Simon, Paul McCartney( my number 1), Brian Wilson and Elton John are the greatest melodists ever:)
Can't argue with that list!
The whole album is one of the best of all time.
is rite
So True!
This song reminds me of when I was a kid...
A hypnotically beautiful song in an album packed with addictive music
and then when we got to banff he made me make noises "like a mink or a rabbit" he said I was 15
aint nuthin flashing but the fire flies
What is that quote from?
such a gentle way to sing your son to sleep. 💫 “makes your famous daddy look so dumb” “ “I sang it once I sang it twice..”
💛
That's a really good lyric. It's funny how kids can do that.
Would like to do this at karaoke (it doesn't seem all that difficult) but can't find a version here.
talent pure talent love paul simon 😘😘
I love this song, too. My daughter just had her second child and I kept singing it to her while I held her. I remembered most of the words after 40+ years. I was proud of myself.
I absolutely love this song 💜💜❤️
As you can hear the music, this is the reason why this album is called "There Goes Rhymin' Simon".
