Every man needs to get a little sleepnWe all need sanctuary from the trouble on the streetnWorking hard and making moneynBut I'd rather be dreaming underneath a shady treennAnd it's 6:00 in the morning, I've been up all nightnAnd I'm tossing and I'm turning and I'm fearing daylightnI'm so spun out, but I think I know what we could donI'm exploding with ideas but I can't call younnOh lord, I hear people in the treesnI'm going on a mission, unlock your ten-speednI hear this place is hot, swarming with policenAnd there's a man on the corner with this camera on mennAnd I'd do anything to get a little restnI think a nightmare would be better than thisnI think a nightmare would be better than thisnnThere's a house they say is haunted up the streetnThe last family that moved in evacuated in a weeknThat voodoo lady always got to me nAnd I'm searching for her spirit desperate for companynn'Cause it's 6:00 in the morning, I've been up all nightnnCan't stop, the wheels are turning, fearing God's morning lightnI'm so spun out, but I think I know what we could do nI'm exploding with ideas but I can't call younnOh Lord, I hear people in the treesnI've got to take the world on a mission with menI had a close brush with voyeur destinynAnd then I hope that you're looking and can see right through mennCan't you see?nnI'd do anything to get a little restnI think a nightmare would be better than thisnI think a nightmare would be better than thisnnLord, can it get be better than this?nCan't keep living like thisnBetter than thisnnOh, I feel so shallow, just like a puddlenI think a nightmare would be better than this
