Who Needs Sleep?

Now I lay me down not to sleep<br>I just get tangled in the sheets<br>I swim in sweat three inches deep<br>Just lay back and claim defeat<br><br>Chapter read and lesson learned<br>I turned the lights off while she burned<br>So while she’s three hundred degrees<br>I throw the sheets off and I freeze<br><br>Lids down<br>I count sheep<br>I count heartbeats<br>The only thing that counts<br>Is that I won’t sleep<br>I count down<br>I look around<br><br>Who needs sleep?<br>Well you’re never gonna get it<br>Who needs sleep?<br>Tell me what’s that for<br>Who needs sleep?<br>Be happy with what you get<br>And there’s a guy that’s been awake since the second world war<br><br>Who needs sleep?<br>Well you’re never gonna get it<br>Who needs sleep?<br>Tell me what’s that for<br>Who needs sleep?<br>Be happy with what you get<br>And there’s a guy that’s been awake since the second world war<br><br>My hands are locked up tight in fists<br>My mind is racing filled with lists<br>Of things to do and things I’ve done<br>Another sleepless night’s begun<br><br>Lids down<br>I count sheep<br>I count heartbeats<br>The only thing that counts<br>Is that I won’t sleep<br>I count down<br>I look around<br><br>Who needs sleep?<br>Well you’re never gonna get it<br>Who needs sleep?<br>Tell me what’s that for<br>Who needs sleep?<br>Be happy with what you get<br>And there’s a guy that’s been awake since the second world war<br><br>Who needs sleep?<br>Well you’re never gonna get it<br>Who needs sleep?<br>Tell me what’s that for<br>Who needs sleep?<br>Be happy with what you get<br>And there’s a guy that’s been awake since the second world war<br><br>So much joy in life<br>So many pleasures all around<br>The pleasure of insomnia<br>Is one I’ve never found<br>With all life has to offer<br>There’s so much to be enjoyed<br>But the pleasures of insomnia are ones I can’t avoid<br><br>Lids down<br>I count sheep<br>I count heartbeats<br>The only thing that counts<br>Is that I won’t sleep<br>I count down<br>I look around<br><br>Hala hala hala<br><br>(REPEAT CHORUS)
