[Verse 1] Now I lay me down not to sleep I just get tangled in the sheets I swim in sweat three inches deep I just lay back and claim defeat Chapter read and lesson learned I turned the lights off while she burned So while shes three hundred degrees I throw the sheets off and I freeze [Bridge] Lids down, I count sheep I count heartbeats The only thing that counts is That I wont sleep I countdown, I look around [Chorus] Who needs sleep? Well youre never gonna get it Who needs sleep? Tell me whats that for Who needs sleep? Be happy with what youre getting Theres a guy whos been awake Since the Second World War [Verse 2] My hands are locked up tight in fists My mind is racing, filled with lists Of things to do and things Ive done Another sleepless nights begun [Bridge] Lids down, I count sheep I count heartbeats The only thing that counts is That I wont sleep I countdown, I look around [Chorus] Who needs sleep? Well youre never gonna get it Who needs sleep? Tell me whats that for Who needs sleep? Be happy with what youre getting Theres a guy whos been awake Since the Second World War Who needs sleep? Well youre never gonna get it Who needs sleep? Tell me whats that for Who needs sleep? Be happy with what youre getting Theres a guy whos been awake Since the Second World War [Verse 3] Theres so much joy in life So many pleasures all around But the pleasure of insomnia Is one Ive never found With all life has to offer Theres so much to be enjoyed But the pleasures of insomnia Are ones I cant avoid [Bridge] Lids down, I count sheep I count heartbeats The only thing that counts is That I wont sleep I countdown, I look around Holla holla holla [Chorus] Who needs sleep? Well youre never gonna get it Who needs sleep? Tell me whats that for Who needs sleep? Be happy with what youre getting Theres a guy whos been awake Since the Second World War Who needs sleep? Well youre never gonna get it Who needs sleep? Tell me whats that for Who needs sleep? Be happy with what youre getting Theres a guy whos been awake Since the Second World War Who needs sleep? Well youre never gonna get it Who needs sleep? Tell me whats that for Who needs sleep? Be happy with what youre getting Theres a guy whos been awake Since the Second World War Who needs sleep? Well youre never gonna get it Who needs sleep? Tell me whats that for Who needs sleep? Be happy with what youre getting Theres a guy whos been awake Since the Second World War Who needs sleep? Well youre never gonna get it Who needs sleep? Tell me whats that for Who needs sleep? Be happy with what youre getting Theres a guy whos been awake Since the Second World War Who needs sleep? Well youre never gonna get it Who needs sleep? Tell me whats that for Who needs sleep? Be happy with what youre getting Theres a guy whos been awake Since the Second World War
