Album: Plugged In Permanent

I'm Trying To Sleep

(Lips, Reiner)
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
Chorus:
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
-Chorus-
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
-Chorus-
