You know maybe it was just a big yawn, "stop annoying me you dumass" thing. You know you are forced up after a wonderful 10 hours (in my case a nice 6 hours max) and you go "omg shut up, just another 5 mins." You sleep actually for another 20 mins. And then wake up. Except with Lavos everything is magnified a lot... 65 MY = 10 hours, 14000 years = 20 mins, yawn = damnation of a major civilization... but still general idea preserved...
