I Can Sleep When I'm Dead

I got a little game that I play

And I call it "Try to beat the morning paper home"

I ain't very good but I get a lot of practice,

Even won once a month ago

Of course there was a girl involved that wasn't gonna let me rest

But I've always said I can sleep when I'm dead

If there's somethin' goin' on within a hundred miles from home,

Ya gonna hear my V-8 sing

Long as I can beat the train and they got a passing lane,

Baby, I ain't gonna miss a thing

Life's too fun and I'm too young and the night ain't over yet

Like I said I can sleep when I'm dead

It ain't no fun if ya ain't got money

So I always make it in to work

The trick is to leave at least a half an hour

To brush my teeth and change my shirt

Keep a closet full of Red Bull and Visine to hide the red

I don't need the rest, I can sleep when I'm dead

When I get tired, I'll go to bed

All that I can say is that it hasn't happened yet

If there's somethin' goin' on within a hundred miles from home,

Ya gonna hear my V-8 sing

Long as I can beat the train and they got a passing lane,

Baby, I ain't gonna miss a thing

Life's too fun and I'm too young and the night ain't over yet

Like I said I can sleep when I'm dead

Like I said

Like I said

I can sleep when I'm dead

(I ain't even tired yet)
