Keane Bedshaped

"Bedshaped and legs of stone" is a quote from Keane's song Bedshaped.

Can anybody explain what it means? Is it that you, allthough you've just wakened up, still have the shape of your bed (figurative) and you are so dizzy you can hardly walk (legs of stone).
Kind regards from Holland!
Joris.
