Today is the last day that I'm using words
They've gone out, lost their meaning
Don't function anymore
Let's, let's, let's get unconscious honey
Let's get unconscious honey
Today is the last day that I'm using words
They've gone out, lost their meaning
Don't function anymore
Traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, to the arms of unconsciousness
Traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, to the arms of unconsciousness
[Chorus:]
Let's get unconscious honey
Let's get unconscious
Let's get unconscious honey
Let's get unconscious
Words are useless, especically sentences
They don't stand for anything
How could they explain how I feel
Traveling, traveling, I'm traveling
Traveling, traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, traveling, I'm gonna relax
Traveling, traveling, in the arms of unconsciousness
[Chorus:]
And inside we're all still wet
Longing and yearning
How can I explain how I feel?
[Chorus:]
Traveling, traveling (repeat twice)
Traveling, traveling, in the arms of unconsciousness
And all that you've ever learned
Try to forget
I'll never explain again
They've gone out, lost their meaning
Don't function anymore
Let's, let's, let's get unconscious honey
Let's get unconscious honey
Today is the last day that I'm using words
They've gone out, lost their meaning
Don't function anymore
Traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, to the arms of unconsciousness
Traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, to the arms of unconsciousness
[Chorus:]
Let's get unconscious honey
Let's get unconscious
Let's get unconscious honey
Let's get unconscious
Words are useless, especically sentences
They don't stand for anything
How could they explain how I feel
Traveling, traveling, I'm traveling
Traveling, traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, traveling, I'm gonna relax
Traveling, traveling, in the arms of unconsciousness
[Chorus:]
And inside we're all still wet
Longing and yearning
How can I explain how I feel?
[Chorus:]
Traveling, traveling (repeat twice)
Traveling, traveling, in the arms of unconsciousness
And all that you've ever learned
Try to forget
I'll never explain again

-"And Inside/We're All Still Wet!/Longing and Yearning/How Can I Explain How I Feel?," She is Crying in Tears. There is only one emotion Madonna feels and it is that of Sadness. Madonna Can't Stop Crying Her Heart Out Because She is Sad Beyond Belief. Lady Madge Will Never Explain Again! Miss Ciccone is moving on with her life. When Lola and Rocco Hear the Bedtime Stories, they begin to cry. Mother Madonna reassueres Lola and Rocco "Hey my friends, I had to go through my trials to get to where I am now. Lola and Rocco, it's ok! I love you both! Lola and Rocco say to their mother "Mother Madonna we love you both!" And so it shall be for the Ciccones.
It refers to the sweet peace you get from sleep (the unconscious) . You don't have to think about anything; especially all of life's troubles (leaving logic and reason). Words have no meaning in the unconscious; You're simply in pure nothingness (they've gone out, lost their meaning, don't function anymore).
"Bedtime Story" was a collaboration of sorts between Madonna and Icelandic popstar Björk. A fan of Björk's solo work, Madonna harbored intentions of working with her, although Björk declined the opportunity of co-operation, instinctively feeling it would be wrong. The Bedtime Stories album co-producer, Nellee Hooper (also responsible for co-production of Björk's early solo work) asked Björk to contribute to the album sessions, leading to her contribution of the demo "Let's Get Unconscious" especially written for Madonna. Both Hooper and De Vries changed the composition significantly enough to gain co-writing credits. The lyrics to "Bedtime Story" are Björk's own criticism of Madonna's aesthetic.[2]
Madonna loved the song so it became the title track.
Madonna is a declared Björk fan and Björk also remixed some songs for Madge.
They're both my favourite female artists in music.
people does'nt give enough credit to what they say or think but words have so much power.
