Another Sleepless Night (1985) Lyrics

[ALL]
Another sleepless night at home in bed
Another silent dawn
You try to think of things you might have said
You try to carry on

[SWEETHEART]
I wash my face
Then drink beer
Then I weep
Say a prayer and induce
Insincere self-abuse
Till I'm fast asleep

[GOLDBERG]
I've done too much talking
That was I don't listen
That was I can't hear what you might say
Oh, look world what I've found
My eyes are grey and the world is round

[MARVIN]
He never stops
This Whizzer Brown
I need my sleep
Fives times a night
He'll request it;
I wanna rest it
(It will keep)
All he wants - what he wants
Is a body that won't fuss
So we sleep in a bed
Too big for two people
It's big for two people
But this bed is bigger than both of us

[LADIES]
Bored
Bored

[MARVIN]
I'm feeling hot
He'll close his eyes
And then surprise:
I'll be awake and performing
He'll wanna sleep
But asks for more
To put up
With a guy
Like myself
Must be a bore
But he sleeps in this bed
With me, a survivor
I'm feeling alive-er
Than I've ever felt in my life before
[LADIES]
Bored
Bored

Bored
Bored

Bored

Bored
[ALL]
Another sleepless night at home in bed
The sun will fly and does
Another book you thought was best unread
Has proved indeed it was

[WIFE]
I break a cup

[GOLDBERG]
Scan a poem

[SWEETHEART]
Then I eat

[MARVIN]
Shower up

[SWEETHEART]
Strike a pose

[GOLDBERG]
Count my feet

[WIFE]
Count my toes

[MARVIN]
Till I'm fast asleep

[ALL]
Fast asleep

[SWEETHEART]
Asleep

[WIFE]
No one here to kick in bed
No one here to rest my head against
I am so alone
In the middle of the night

I am so alone

[SWEETHEART]
I am so alone

[GOLDBERG]
I am so alone

[WIFE]
I am so alone

[ALL]
In the middle of the night

[Music]

[ALL]
Night
