I'm so wired,   Very tired,   Why can't I   Close my eyes.      Times speeding   It's day, it's night, it's night, it's day   And it's time   I went to sleep.   Chorus:   Tired and sick, I'm sick and tired,   I'm falling on my feet   Tired and sick, I'm sick and tired,   Why can't I close my eyes and go to sleep?   It's not as easy as it seems.      Sssh   Draw the blinds   Sssh   Kill that light,   Sssh   Put down that book,   Sssh   The phone rings   Sssh   I'm not here   Sssh   I'm off the hook      (I'm so wired)   Close your eyes,   (Very tired)   Put down your head,   (Why can't I)   Go to sleep   Close my eyes.      If I took enough of these red things,   Get some permanent sleep, blue things,   What lullabys would you sing, white things      I wanna go   It's a long drive home   Don't wanna stay,   One more minute      Close my eyes and go to sleep   It's not as easy as it seems,   Close my eyes and go to sleep   I'm jumping fences, counting sheep   I'm counting fences, jumping sheep   I'm fencing jumpsuits in my sleep   I'm counting fencing, I can't think
