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 that I can sleep when I'm dead      If there's somethin' goin' on within a hundred miles from home   You're 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 you 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      If there's somethin' goin' on within a hundred miles from home   You're 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      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   You're 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, like I said, like I said I can sleep when I'm dead   I ain't even tired yet
