I can't sleep, I can't sleep |
|
My doctor said I've got to stay in bed |
|
A week at least, a week or three |
|
But that would drive me crazy |
|
My lawyer said my case is weak |
|
The witnesses refuse to speak |
|
And you're up against a hanging judge and jury |
|
The boss is on my back |
|
He says he feels there something lacking in the progress |
|
of my department |
|
My youngest boy, not yet thirteen |
|
Said Dad, drop out, this ain't your scene |
|
But my eldest boy just said, Dad, drop dead |
|
Oh, when things go wrong, they really go wrong |
|
And they rarely go right for me |
|
Oh, when things go wrong, they really go wrong |
|
And they rarely go right for me |
|
My mother says she's still alive |
|
Please call us up from time to time |
|
If it's not too much trouble |
|
It's for your father's sake |
|
My yoga class |
|
Said take the time to relax, relax, relax |
|
But we're dining out with the Shultzes tonight |
|
And I hate the Shultzes |
|
I never wake up in the morning |
|
'Cos I never go to sleep at night |
|
I go to bed, I take a powder |
|
Maybe tonight's the night |
|
All the cares of the day |
|
Seem to gather in a corner |
|
Like an army of ants |
|
Who are waiting for the moment when the lights go out |
|
I can't sleep, I can't sleep |
|
Oh, when things go wrong, they really go wrong |
|
And they rarely go right for me |
|
Oh, when things go wrong, they really go wrong |
|
And they rarely go right for me |
