Lyrics:

I'm so wired
Very tired
Why can't I
Close my eyes?
Time's speeding
It's day, it's night, it's night, it's day
And it's time
I went to sleep

Tired and sick, I'm sick and tired
I'm falling on my feet
Sick and tired, I'm sick and tired
Why can't I close my eyes and go to sleep?
It's not as easy as it seems

(Shh) Draw the blinds
(Shh) Kill that light
(Shh) Put down that book
(Shh)
(Shh) The phone rings
(Shh) I'm not here
(Shh) I'm off the hook
(Shh)

(I'm so wired) Hey, close your eyes
(Very tired) Put down your head
(Why can't I) Go to sleep
(Close my eyes?)

Tired and sick, I'm sick and tired
I'm falling on my feet
Sick and tired, I'm sick and tired
Why can't I close my eyes and go to sleep?
It's not as easy as it seems

If I took enough of these (Red things, red things)
Get some permanent sleep (Blue things, blue things)
What lullabies would you sing (White things, white things)
For me?

(Oooooh)
(Oo-ooh-oooh)
(Oo-ooh-oooh)
(Oo-ooooh-oooh)

I wanna go (Oooooh)
It's a long drive home (Oo-ooh-oooh)
Don't wanna stay (Oo-ooh-oooh)
One more minute, minute, minute (Oo-ooooh-oooh)

Tired and sick, I'm sick and tired
I'm falling on my feet
Sick and tired, I'm sick and tired
Why can't I close my eyes and go to sleep?
It's not as easy as it seems
Close your eyes and go to sleep
I'm jumping fences, counting sheep
I'm counting fences, jumping sheep (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
(9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
I'm fencing jumpsuits in my sleep (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) (One, two)
(9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14) (Three, four)
I'm counting fencing, I can't think (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) (Five, six)
(9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14) (Seven, eight)
Close my eyes and go to sleep (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) (Nine, ten)

(Eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen)
