(Verse)
|
Street cars and Podunk bars,
|
Said I hope I get there by sunrise,
|
Sleep until noon in, Hotel rooms can,
|
Lead to barefoot girls dancing on tables,
|
|
Fix your hair and, call your friends,
|
Cuz tonight there¡¯s gonna be a party,
|
Campfire storytime, I told a joke and made you smile,
|
Listening to the Rolling Stones,
|
|
(Chorus)
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
Will stop moving when I seen it all
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
|
(Verse)
|
Wake up glassy eyes, It ain¡¯t no big surprise,
|
Said oh my god this ain¡¯t my bed
|
No shirt wear a pillow case I¡¯m off to another race,
|
I got 5 to 1 I¡¯ve lost my.. Lost My Head!
|
|
(Chorus)
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
Will stop moving when I seen it all
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
|
-Instrumental-
|
|
(Verse)
|
I got my whole week set, Hopped on a jumbo jet,
|
I was a shaking like a leaf I¡¯m gonna dry me out,
|
And I fucking hate these things, Tin can with cardboard wings,
|
No smoking sign got me all bent out of shape,
|
|
I¡¯m clawing at my seat, Pacific Ocean beneath my feet,
|
And the captain muffles something on the radio,
|
Voice on that intercom said, don¡¯t worry just stay calm,
|
Put your head between your legs cuz we¡¯re going down,
|
|
(Chorus)
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
Will stop moving when I seen it all
|
I can sleep when I'm dead
|
