Sleep When I'm Dead
(Look at me!)
It's not a brag that you know where all the plug sockets are
In your local Wetherspoons
I've heard you're being bullied by the head of HR
And you don't know who to complain to
Mate, it's unraveling
Like party popper streamers hanging from the ceiling
I've heard you'll never lose
If you refuse to choose to give their game meaning
But you'll roll the dice again anyway
And pray that today's the day it gets better
I'll sleep when I'm dead, dead, dead or when I am next in my bed
I hope that the latter comes first
I'm shattered but could use more time on earth
I'll sleep when I'm dead or when I'm next in bed
Is it bad that I know to the second
Just how long it takes me to get to bed from a booth?
I timed it once in the middle of the night
Waving sorry to the traffic I ran through
Mate, I'm unraveling
Not sure I can do this again
My head is pounding and I'm pound for pound the worst I've been
Since the last time I said it was the worst I'd been before
But I'll roll the dice again anyway
And pray that today's the day I get better
I'll sleep when I'm dead, dead, dead or when I am next in my bed
I hope that the latter comes first
I'm shattered but could use more time on earth
I'll sleep when I'm dead or when I'm next in bed
I'll sleep when I'm dead, dead, dead or when I am next in my bed
I hope that the latter comes first
I'm shattered but could use more time on earth
I'll sleep when I'm dead or when I'm next in bed
I'll sleep when I'm dead or when I'm next in bed
It's not a brag that you know where all the plug sockets are
In your local Wetherspoons
I've heard you're being bullied by the head of HR
And you don't know who to complain to
Mate, it's unraveling
Like party popper streamers hanging from the ceiling
I've heard you'll never lose
If you refuse to choose to give their game meaning
But you'll roll the dice again anyway
And pray that today's the day it gets better
I'll sleep when I'm dead, dead, dead or when I am next in my bed
I hope that the latter comes first
I'm shattered but could use more time on earth
I'll sleep when I'm dead or when I'm next in bed
Is it bad that I know to the second
Just how long it takes me to get to bed from a booth?
I timed it once in the middle of the night
Waving sorry to the traffic I ran through
Mate, I'm unraveling
Not sure I can do this again
My head is pounding and I'm pound for pound the worst I've been
Since the last time I said it was the worst I'd been before
But I'll roll the dice again anyway
And pray that today's the day I get better
I'll sleep when I'm dead, dead, dead or when I am next in my bed
I hope that the latter comes first
I'm shattered but could use more time on earth
I'll sleep when I'm dead or when I'm next in bed
I'll sleep when I'm dead, dead, dead or when I am next in my bed
I hope that the latter comes first
I'm shattered but could use more time on earth
I'll sleep when I'm dead or when I'm next in bed
I'll sleep when I'm dead or when I'm next in bed
