deep in the bosom of the gentle night is when i search for the light pick up my pen and start to write i struggle fight dark forces in the clear moon light without fear insomnia i can t get no sleep i used to worry thought i was goin mad in a hurry gettin stress makin excess mess in darkness no electricity something s all over me greasy insomnia please release me and let me dream of makin mad love to my girl on the heath tearin off tights with my teeth but there s no release no peace i toss and turn without cease like a curse open my eyes and rise like yeast at least a couple of weeks since i last slept kept takin sleepers but now i keep myself pepped deeper still that night i write by candle light i find insight fundamental movement uh so when it s black this insomniac take an original tack keep the beast in my nature under ceaseless attack i gets no sleep i can t get no sleep i can t get no sleep i can t get no sleep i need to sleep although i get no sleep i need to sleep although i get no sleep
