Sleep Lyrics

Boomtown Rats
» Sleep (finger's Lullaby)

I'm so wired,

Very tired,

Why can't I

Close my eyes.

Times speeding

It's day, it's night, it's night, it's day

And it's time

I went to sleep.

Chorus:

Tired and sick, I'm sick and tired,

I'm falling on my feet

Tired and sick, I'm sick and tired,

Why can't I close my eyes and go to sleep?

It's not as easy as it seems.

Sssh

Draw the blinds

Sssh

Kill that light,

Sssh

Put down that book,

Sssh

The phone rings

I'm not here

Sssh

I'm off the hook

(I'm so wired)

Close your eyes,

(Very tired)

Put down your head,

(Why can't I)

Go to sleep

Close my eyes.

If I took enough of these red things,

Get some permanent sleep, blue things,

What lullabys would you sing, white things

I wanna go

It's a long drive home

Don't wanna stay,

One more minute

Close my eyes and go to sleep

It's not as easy as it seems,

Close my eyes and go to sleep

I'm jumping fences, counting sheep

I'm counting fences, jumping sheep

I'm fencing jumpsuits in my sleep

I'm counting fencing, I can't think
