"I Get No Sleep" lyrics
"I Get No Sleep"
Got a house full of fortune and they pay me in gold
For something I'd do for free
But there's still something missing that a man can't hold
It's like a weight over me
So scared the thrill will be gone
But I'm the one who keeps the pressure on
All I've got is all I need
But I get no sleep and I'm tired to the bone
All I've got is all I need
But I get no sleep and I know I'm not alone, ooh
Yeah, yeah
Well, I'm sick of walking 'round with blood in my eyes
Just keeping up with this town
I'm a roadrunner racing, but I don't see the signs
I've got to learn to slow down
My life makes it hard to complain
But there's times I'd take my school days back again
All I've got is all I need
But I get no sleep and I'm tired to the bone
All I've got is all I need
But I get no sleep and I know I'm not alone, ooh
Yeah, yeah
Four o'clock and I'm still counting sheep
Love to change the system, but I'm in too deep
I keep the pressure far away as I can
But it still comes back again, back again, oh, yeah
My life makes it hard to complain
But there's times I'd take my school days back again
All I've got is all I need
But I get no sleep and I'm tired to the bone
All I've got is all I need
But I get no sleep and I know I'm not alone
All I've got is all I need
(Yeah, yeah)
But I get no sleep and I'm sure I'm not alone
All I've got is all I need
I'm not alone, yeah, yeah, yeah

Eddie Money - "Heaven In The Back Seat" Young girl, looking to take a ride
Gonna get to love you if it takes all night
I wanna get, huh next to you
She's got what I want, I got what she needs
Me and my baby, and the mirror makes three...
Robert Palmer - "Your Mother Should Have Told You" Your looks are sensational
Where do I begin?
You're so unbelievable
It must be a sin
I try to keep pace with you
But I never win
You're on the attack again
I'll have to give in
You look fully grown...
Tommy Shaw - "The Outsider" Jimmy was the son of a sailor
Another lonely military brat
Norfolk, Virgina, Vallejo
Bags always packed
Now his mother was always out drinking
On midnight maneuvers of her own
Jimmy would sit there...
