Sleeping is like living like it starts so slow
Like you're 20 years old before you pick up the tempo
No it's not funny
Oh no it's not funny
I hear you laughing but I swear it's not funny
You think it's humorous the way we fade away
But one day you'll feel it too and this is what you'll say:
I've had too much sleep, too much sleep, I've slept too much
I slept way too much, I really overslept
I could've been awake but I slept way too much
Oh I can sleep safely in the u.s.a.
Or I could've been out in the sun all day
Or had too much sleep, too much sleep…
I've spent a lot of time up in harlem
And even more in the far east
I never fought for my country
Or from the belly of the beast
'Cause I got plenty aggravation
I can't seem to get too much sleep
