Sleepless 10 Year-Old
I'm trying to do nothing
But I keep doing something
Though I'm not doing much
I've still got the magic touch
I'm trying to go to sleep
Without saying a peep
It's hard to try
But even harder to cry
I'm trying to dance
Without losing my pants
Hopefully I will grow taller
Without having to holler
I will try and go to bed
As my mother had said
So I might start a fight
But I'm trying with all my might
To be polite
So goodnight
alright
