Oh the darn fool wasted 30 years of his life
Just going to sleep every night.
Oh the darn fool wasted 30 years of his life
Just going to sleep every night.
He'd close the door, turn out the light
Jump into bed and say "Good night!"
Oh the darn fool wasted 30 years of his life
Just going to sleep every night.
I wish I could sleep my whole darn life
And never have to wake at all.
I wish I could sleep my whole darn life
And never have to wake at all.
I'd get up in the morning, go to the john,
Then jump back in bed and wave "So long!"
I wish I could sleep my whole darn life
And never have to wake at all.
I wish I was an insomniac
I'd never have to sleep at all.
I wish I was an insomniac
I'd never have to sleep at all.
I'd go to my chair, turn on the light,
Then read a good book the whole darn night!
I wish I was an insomniac
I'd never have to sleep at all.
Oh the darn fool wasted 30 years of his life
Just going to sleep every night.
Oh the darn fool wasted 30 years of his life
Just going to sleep every night.
He'd close the door, turn out the light
Jump into bed and say "Good night!"
Oh the darn fool wasted 30 years of his life
Just going to sleep every night.
Good evening, friends!
