This is a song about puns and heartbreak.

lyrics

COME BACK TO BED
(G. McElwain)

Since you left me i haven't been sleeping.
I haven't slept a wink.
I know i took it hard. Darn near tore me apart
when you left, but this ain't what you think.

Now, you did what you did. You don't have to
apologize to me.
I admit, I've been lonely. But i'm not the only
one you left behind. Don't you see?

I'm doing fine now, but the bed is broken-hearted.
He can't believe you're never coming back.
He keeps me up all night a-tossin' and a-turnin'.
I tell you, I ain't never seen a sadder sack

Don't you know he won't let me roll over
out of respect for you.
Says he's saving your place,
so i don't get much space.
He's got both pillows over there, too!

Well, he figures you've got to sleep somewhere,
and hates to think that you're
resting your sugar beets
between some strangers' sheets.
He can't go on like this anymore.

I'm doing fine now but the bed is broken-hearted.
His dignity is hanging by a thread.
If you can find it in your mercy to forgive me,
it'd mean the world to him if you'd come back to bed.
