Sandman's Stingy On Sleep Dust
I can not turn off my brain
It is driving me insane
So many thoughts I can't get out
I just want to scream and shout
Keeping me up every night
Mornings looking like a fright
From the lack of sleep I know
It's now beginning to show
How crazy it's making me
Friends, coworkers, family
Are seeing the insane signs
From me crossing loony lines
Into goofy, strange and weird
Sometimes even I get scared
I can't do this anymore
I'm gonna even up the score
Finding the hidden sandman
Knowing that I finally can
Get some needed sleep or I
Will make this little creature cry
From the spanking he will get
It's his fault-- he wont forget
To now visit me for bed
Or I'll stay loopy in the head
