"I'll Sleep When I'm Dead" lyrics

"I'll Sleep When I'm Dead"

Seven days of Saturday
Is all that I need
Got no use for Sunday
'Cause I don't rest in peace
Don't need no Mondays
Or the rest of the week
I spend a lot of time in bed
But baby I don't like to sleep
No

I won't lie to you
I'm never gonna cry to you
I'll probably drive you wild 8 days a week

Until I'm six-feet under
Baby I don't need a bed
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
'Til they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead

So you're looking for some action
I got everything you need
Better keep your motor running
'Cause I was built for speed
This ain't no slumber party
Got no time for catching z's
If they say that that ain't healthy
Well then living's a disease

We're never gonna die baby
Come on let me drive you crazy
We'll make every night another New Year's Eve

'Til I'm six-feet under, baby
I won't need a bed
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
'Til they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead

Sleep when I'm dead, sleep when I'm dead
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Seven days of Saturday
Is all that I need

Got no use for Sunday
'Cause I don't rest in peace
I was born to live
You know I wasn't born to die
But if they party down in heaven
I'll be sure to be on time

Until I'm six-feet under, baby
I don't need a bed
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead
'Til they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead

I feel like I'm exploding
Going out of my head
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead

'Til I'm six-feet under
And they lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I'm alive
I'll sleep when I'm dead

Sleep when I'm dead, sleep when I'm dead
Gonna live while I'm alive, sleep when I'm dead
