Postman's knocking on my door,
is it just me or wasn't he here before?
Like a couple of hours ago or three or twenty four,
can't keep track of time no more.
Guess I'm rising from my bed,
or maybe I'll stay in here instead.
What have I got that's left to lose?
All I gotta do is hit the snooze.... I wanna...
Sleep for a week,
ain't had nothing to eat, and I'm
tired and I'm cold,
I feel so old, I wanna
Sleep for a week, don't want
no-one around,
I don't even wanna hear no sound....
Staring out my office window,
and that rain is coming on down.
Thoughts drift back into my pillow,
swap this shirt for a dressing gown.
Pinch myself make sure I'm here,
marks and bruises show that I am.
I'm falling asleep halfway through an idea....
I wanna...
Sleep for a week,
ain't had nothing to eat, and I'm
tired and I'm cold,
I feel so old, I wanna
Sleep for a week, don't want
no-one around,
I don't even wanna hear no sound....
Goodnight, now I'm falling... away....
