Who Needs Sleep lyrics

Now I lay me down not to sleep
I just get tangled in the sheets
I swim in sweat three inches deep
I just lay back and claim defeat

Chapter read and lesson learned
I 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 s that 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 s that 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 s that 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 s that for
Who needs sleep?
be happy with what you re getting
There s a guy who s been awake
since the Second World War

[Repeat]
