Lyrics
SLEEP WHEN I DIE
INTRO
VERSE 1
Gotta pay the fare for all the wear and tear, whatever it is worth
Twenty-four seven don't get you to heaven, gotta find heaven here on earth
Whatever it is worth
Gotta find heaven on here earth
CHORUS
Work all day, play all night. Can't sleep when I try
Work all day, play all night. Sleep when I die
VERSE 2
I can't sleep between the sheets, when I'm three sheets to the wind
Hit rough seas, and I'm on my knees, that's how I pay when I've sinned
I'm three sheets to the wind
that's how I pay when I've sinned
CHORUS
BRIDGE
VERSE 3
It ain't right to be up all night, I don't think about it 'til dawn
For my boss's sake, I pretend I'm awake, gotta keep it up all day long
Don't think about it 'til dawn
Gotta keep it up all day long
CHORUS
OUTRO
Straddle-addle-addle bobo-ladda bobo-ling-toon ring-toon botty michy cambo (x2)
Work all day, play all night. Can't sleep when I try
Work all day, play all night. Sleep when I die
