Deep in the busom of the gentle night,
Is when I search for the light, Pick up my pen and start to write.
I struggle and fight dark forces in the clear moonlight,
Without fear.. Insomnia..
I can't get no sleep.
I can't get no sleep.
I used to worry, Thought I was going mad in a hurry,
Gettin' stressed makin' excess mess in darkness.
No electricity, Something's all over me, Greasy,
Insomnia, Please release me and let me dream of,
Makin' mad love to my girl on the heath,
Tearin' off tights with my teeth.
But there's no release, No peace, I toss and turn without cease,
Like a curse, Open my eyes, Rise like yeast.
At least a couple of weeks since I last slept, Kept takin' sleepers..
But now I keep myself pepped.
Deeper still, The night, I write by candle-light I find insight
From the mental movement.
So when it's black, This insomniac takes an original tack
Keep the beast in my nature under ceaseless attack.. I gets no sleep..
Iiiii caaaan't get nooo sleeeeep..
I can't get no sleep.
I can't get no sleep.
I need to sleep, I can't get no sleep..
I need to sleep, I can't get no sleep...
I only smoke weed when I need to,
And I need to get some rest, yo, where's the cess.
I confess, I burnt a hole in the mattress,
Yes, yes, it was me, I plead guilty,
And on the count of three I pull back the duvet,
Make my way to the refrigerator,
One dry potato inside, no lie
Not even bread, jam,
When the light above my head went bam!
I can't sleep, something's all over me,
Greasy, insomnia please release me,
And let me dream about making mad love on the heath,
Tearing off tights with my teeth.
But there's no relief,
I'm wide awake in my kitchen,
It's black and I'm lonely,
Oh, if I could only get some sleep,
Creaky noises make my skin creep,
I need to get some sleep,
I can't get no sleep....
