Lyrics
Cracks rack the windows, howls hole the floor
Rings rub the rafters, do you just have to snore?
It's a most inclement climate for the season of the night
There's a master playing football
I thought they didn't like the light
And the dawn comes sneaking up
When it thinks I'm not looking
I've started to grieve me
I used to know but now believe me
Tell me sleep is a gas
I want to lay down but I'm sorry I won't
'Cause I've even got the no sleep blues
There's mayhem in this mansion since the cows were coming home
With delirium no sleeper in a cloud of nylon foam
But release scours the outhouse when a hard rain sears the sky
And if you let the pigs decide it, they'll put you in the sty
And the dawn comes sneaking up
When it thinks I'm not looking
I've started to grieve me
I used to know but now believe me
Tell me sleep is a gas
I want to lay down but I'm sorry I won't
'Cause I've even got the no sleep blues
I think I'll get a picture, I think I'll put it on a nail
And then I think I'll go and get another one and I'll put it in a pail
But the pail it got so rusty, I called it red red red for fun
And it left like a leaver, do you want to see it run?
And the dawn comes sneaking up
When it thinks I'm not looking
I'm starting to grieve me
I used to know but now believe me
Tell me sleep is a gas
I want to lay down but I'm sorry I won't
'Cause I've even got the no sleep blues
The science of the future declared itself no park
Aloof like a sultan in the autumn of your heart
But the heart it got so hearty and it rode for the shore
And the sailors fired a big salute which made my ears quite sore
And the dawn comes sneaking up
When it thinks I'm not looking
I'm starting to grieve me
I used to know but now believe me
Tell me sleep is a gas
I want to lay down but I'm sorry I won't
'Cause I've even got the no sleep blues
