The lyric of Who Needs Sleep, Barenaked Ladies's song Now I lay me down not to sleep I just get tangled in the sheets I swim in sweat three inches deep I just lay back and claim defeat Chapter read and lesson learned I turned the lights off while she burned So while she s three hundred degrees I throw the sheets off and I freeze Lids down, I count sheep I count heartbeats The only thing that counts is that I won t sleep I countdown, I look around Who needs sleep? well you re never gonna get it Who needs sleep? tell me what s that for Who needs sleep? be happy with what you re getting There s a guy who s been awake since the Second World War My hands are locked up tight in fists My mind is racing, filled with lists of things to do and things I ve done Another sleepless night s begun Lids down, I count sheep I count heartbeats The only thing that counts is that I won t sleep I countdown, I look around Who needs sleep? well you re never gonna get it Who needs sleep? tell me what s that for Who needs sleep? be happy with what you re getting There s a guy who s been awake since the Second World War Who needs sleep? well you re never gonna get it Who needs sleep? tell me what s that for Who needs sleep? be happy with what you re getting There s a guy who s been awake since the Second World War There s so much joy in life, so many pleasures all around But the pleasure of insomnia is one I ve never found With all life has to offer, there s so much to be enjoyed But the pleasures of insomnia are ones I can t avoid Lids down, I count sheep I count heartbeats The only thing that counts is that I won t sleep I countdown, I look around Hala Hala Hala Who needs sleep? well you re never gonna get it Who needs sleep? tell me what s that for Who needs sleep? be happy with what you re getting There s a guy who s been awake since the Second World War Repeat
