Sleepless Night

another sleepless night
they'll say I'm not alright
they want to diagnose me
they'll be saying I'm crazy
wouldn't change a thing in my life
even the three tries for a wife
night or day doesn't matter
in mirror still look fatter
make lemonade they tell me
I'd rather be making tea
memories are stronger now
just want to say  Holy Cow

I've done plenty of that in my life. The medication for the pain was suppose to put me to sleep, unfortunately I told my wife the pill didn't work must have been broken.
