I'm so wired, very tired, why can't I close my eyes?
Time is speeding, it's day, it's night, it's night, it's day
And it's time I went to sleep.
Tired and sick, I'm sick and tired, I'm falling on my feet
Sick and tired, I'm sick and tired,
Why can't I close my eyes and go to sleep?
It's not as easy as it seems.
Draw the blinds, kill that light, put down that book,
The phone rings, I'm not here, I'm off the hook
If I take enough of these (red things red things)
Get some permanent sleep (blue things blue things)
What lullabies would you sing (white things white things)
For me?
I wanna go, it's a long drive home
Don't wanna stay one more minute
Close my eyes and go to sleep
It's not as easy as it seems,
Close my eyes and go to sleep
I'm jumping fences, counting sheep
I'm counting fences, jumping sheep
I'm fencing jumpsuits in my sleep
I'm counting fencing, I can't think
