Stutter Rap (No Sleep Til Bedtime) is a song by Morris Minor and the Majors, led by Tony Hawks. The song is a style parody of the Beastie Boys and the subtitle plays on their 1980s single No Sleep Till Brooklyn and sold 220,000 copies.

Hawks started out as a songwriter but was not successful, and instead became a comedian and writer. However, it was when he turned to comedy that he achieved a hit with "Stutter Rap (No Sleep Til Bedtime)/Another Boring B-Side", reaching number four in the UK charts, #14 in the Canadian charts and #2 in Australia. Although written by Hawks it was performed by him along with two others, as Morris Minor and the Majors. In the video for the song, John Deacon (of Queen) makes an appearance, wearing a blue wig.

The music video was featured on Australian TV program Spicks and Specks on September 12, 2007.
