[intro]

I could use some sleep

It's looking like the sun's,
Coming up
I'm really really tired (tired, tired)

Of countin' stupid sheep!

It's been like this for weeks,
Maybe months,
Don't know what I'm thinkin'

There's not a moments rest here at home

Toss and turn my queen-sized mattress too small
I don't get the sleep (sleep, sleep)

I won't get my sleep to-night
Never do I find relief I think it's night shift work

I won't get my sleep (I sure could use it)
Really need to rest - my - mind
'cause I do believe my IQ's dippin' low,
uh uh uh!,
Man I need some sleep!


I've cut down on caffeine

To just 6 cans a day!,
Of that Coke,
I'd say I've made some progress! (progress? oh yes!),

My domicile is clean

Except for all the dust!,
(that's no joke!),
Oh am I s'posed to vaccuum?!

All that housework's not really my style!

Toss and turn the queen-sized mattress too hard
I don't get the sleep (sleep, sleep)

I won't get my sleep to-night
Never do I find relief I think it's night shift work

I won't get my sleep (I sure could use it)
Really need to rest - my - eyes
'cause I do believe my mind is going slow,
duh duh duh!,
Man I need some sleep!

[short solo with incomprehensible mumbling and police
sirens, which *always* makes me sleep well. Sigh...]

(If I could find that, restful, moment)

Gotta get some sleep (sleep, sleep),

It's looking like the sun's,
Coming up,
Eyes are really blinkin'

There's not a moments rest that I own
I don't get the sleep (but I could use it)
I won't get my sleep to-night
Never do I find relief I think I'm overworked
(Whaa! Whaa! Whaa!)
I could use some zzz's (oh that I'd cherish)
Man I need some sleep (seem drowsy at this time)
Sorry but it's you I leave my wife just called me so
Oh oh oh!
In bed not asleep!
