I got a little game that I play
|
And I call it "Try to beat the morning paper home"
|
I ain't very good but I get a lot of practice,
|
Even won once a month ago
|
Of course there was a girl involved that wasn't gonna let me rest
|
But I've always said I can sleep when I'm dead
|
|
[Chorus]
|
If there's somethin' goin' on within a hundred miles from home,
|
Ya gonna hear my V-8 sing
|
Long as I can beat the train and they got a passing lane,
|
Baby, I ain't gonna miss a thing
|
Life's too fun and I'm too young and the night ain't over yet
|
Like I said I can sleep when I'm dead
|
|
It ain't no fun if ya ain't got money
|
So I always make it in to work
|
The trick is to leave at least a half an hour
|
To brush my teeth and change my shirt
|
Keep a closet full of Red Bull and Visine to hide the red
|
I don't need the rest, I can sleep when I'm dead
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
When I get tired, I'll go to bed
|
All that I can say is that it hasn't happened yet
|
|
If there's somethin' goin' on within a hundred miles from home,
|
Ya gonna hear my V-8 sing
|
Long as I can beat the train and they got a passing lane,
|
Baby, I ain't gonna miss a thing
|
Life's too fun and I'm too young and the night ain't over yet
|
Like I said I can sleep when I'm dead
|
Like I said
|
Like I said
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
|
(I ain't even tired yet)

I Can Sleep When I'm Dead
