[Verse 1]
Well I snooze, but I don't lose
I'm a somnambulist at the top of the list
I'm happiest when I'm tucked in
And I refuse to see sloth as a sin
From the middle of the night to the morning light
To the time when I feel just right
I got a goal: to shorten the gap
Between waking up and my afternoon nap
I wanna earn a coma diploma
Who do I see 'bout getting me into a coma?
[Refrain]
'Cause when I lay me down, my soul is yours to keep
Woa oh, I'm going back to sleep
[Verse 2]
Well there ain't no trees in [?]
It's a terrible place for a hammock
So I got the fuck out of there and moved to New York City
I felt all the nitty-gritty, nitty-gritty, nitty-gritty
They say it's the city that never sleeps
Well you know that's about to change
[Refrain]
'Cause the price of loving you, girl, just ain't cheap
Woa oh, I'm going back to sleep
[Verse 3]
Well, life's better in my dreams
'Cause in there, you and me, we're a team
And my dreams are powered by your love steam
But things are never quite what they seem
I'm gonna cryogenically freeze
A dream of your birds and of your bees
'Til the day you're on your knees begging please
'Til then, I'm gonna catch up on some z's
[Refrain]
You can count me out, but just let me count my sheep
Oh lord, I'm going back to sleep
