Now, I lay me down, not to sleep
I just get tangled in the sheets
I swim in sweat, three inches deep
Just lay back and claim defeat
Chapter read and lesson learned
Turned the lights off while she burned
So while she's three hundred degrees
I throw the sheets off and I freeze
Lids down, I count sheep
I count heartbeats
The only thing that counts is that I won't sleep
I countdown, I look around
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
My hands are locked up tight in fists
My mind is racing, filled with lists
Of things to do and things I've done
Another sleepless night's begun
Lids down, I count sheep
I count heartbeats
The only thing that counts is that I won't sleep
I countdown, I look around
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
There's so much joy in life, so many pleasures all around
But the pleasure of insomnia is one I've never found
With all life has to offer, there's so much to be enjoyed
But the pleasures of insomnia are ones I can't avoid
Lids down, I count sheep
I count heartbeats
The only thing that counts is that I won't sleep
I countdown, I look around
Hala, hala, hala
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
Who needs sleep, well, you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep, tell me what that's for
Who needs sleep, be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake since the Second World War
