This really depends on the age and general health of the Cocker Spaniel. A lot of dogs sleep most of the day away because they have nothing else to do.
If your dog is a puppy, then yes, it is very natural for he/she to sleep a lot because he/she is still growing!! (Babies sleep a lot, too, it's just how it goes!)
If your dog is older or a 'senior' dog (most dogs over the age of 7 are considered to be "senior dogs"), then this, too, is also pretty common.
If your dog is past puppy stage, still pretty young (2 to 5 years old), and is normally active but suddenly seems very tired and only wants to sleep-- you may want to get it checked out at a vet. He might not be feeling very well.
Otherwise, he might just be plain bored and has nothing else to do. Try playing with him/her every day, go for a walk, and see if the energy level increases.

Also it might be pregnant.
--Edit---
I suppose it being pregnant is possible if the dog is female and has not been spayed, and has been around an un-neutered male while she was in heat.
But most people are not that irresponsible, unless they are trying to get the dog to breed.
