Wake Up, Sean!!

Wake up, wake up, Sean the ever-sleeping
What makes you to sleep so long?
The cock has crowed, the horn's been blown
The day has since begun.

Apollo in his chariot is riding
The day has since begun
We have eaten all the breakfast
But there's still no sign of Sean
Over to his tent we rambled
And we did a helmet beat on
The noise we made quite loudly
But still no sign of Sean.

Wake up, wake up, Sean the ever-sleeping
What makes you to sleep so long?
The cock has crowed, the horn's been blown
The day has since begun.

We pondered upon this problem for a moment
For battle was soon to begin
And without Sean's great cheering
We knew we could not win
But then in the tent we heard some stirring
And once in a great while a moan
So we waited with anticipation
Could this, at last, be Sean?

Wake up, wake up, Sean the ever-sleeping
What makes you to sleep so long?
The cock has crowed, the horn's been blown
The day has since begun.

We murmured and trembled with excitement
And we wondered what had kept him so long
Perhaps a long night of wenching
Had tired out our good Sean
Or maybe he'd sampled too much bourbon
And his temples they pounded with pain
So let's wrap some ice up in a turban
And he can cool off his brain.

Wake up, wake up, Sean the ever-sleeping
What makes you to sleep so long?
The cock has crowed, the horn's been blown
The day has since begun.

His head then appeared under the tent flap
He squinted his eyes from the sun
We laughed at his funny expression
His strained looks did add to our fun
But he didn't like to be the object
Of ridicule, humor and shame
So he fended us off with his pillow
And he went back to sleep again.

Wake up, wake up, Sean the ever-sleeping
What makes you to sleep so long?
The cock has crowed, the horn's been blown
The day has since begun.
