I hate the sound of an alarm clock in my ear When I've been up all night downing a case of beer I pray the Lord my soul for him to keep Don't you know that my rest just don't come cheap Fuck off I'm trying to sleep I'm trying to sleep Too much coffee I need a sleeping pill I need a rest but ya know I never will I've been awake so long feels like the four day creep It won't be long before they bury me six feet deep When I get tired and longing for my bed I plug my ears, hide my achin' head I shut the world out, my seclusion is deep All I really want is to get some sleep A woman's touch is keeping me awake When it's morning I'm gonna need a break My mind's in shambles, my body's in a heap If I don't get some shut eye I'm gonna start to weep
