Ten Thousand Four Hundred Thirty-Two Sheep
Day Doris

I didn't sleep again last night

And I'd like to discuss the matter

The nerves to which I'm strung are tight

And I'm as beat as a bowl of batter


If old man Rip Van Winkle

Thought his long sleep was a curse

I know how the old man felt

Because I've got his problem in reverse


Ten thousand, four hundred and thirty two sheep

How long can I toss like this?

Ten thousand, four hundred and thirty three sheep

What did you put in that kiss?

I've tried all the remedies

The well-known good advice

Took a hot tub and an alcohol rub

Did the alphabet backwards twice


Ten thousand, four hundred and thirty four sheep

We'd better get married soon

Ten thousand, four hundred and thirty five sheep

I'll never hold out till June

How much do I love you?

Just in case you didn't know

You get a mental kiss

With every sheep I count

And I still got a million sheep to go


(Did you ever try seeing see a doctor?)

A doctor?


I went to see a noted doctor

Who's a famous analyst


Then he led me to the couch

And he gently took my wrist

I paid him fifty dollars

(Well, that sounds pretty cheap)

Cheap! I should have paid him nothing!

'Cause I still can't sleep


(Ten thousand, four hundred) and thirty six sheep

(And one sheep that got away)

He took another lamb!

(Ten thousand, four hundred) and thirty eight sheep

(Won't night ever turn to day?)

Oh what a fool I am

How much do I love you?

Just in case you didn't know

You get a mental kiss with every sheep I count

(Add them all together

That's a large amount)


I've counted a trillion sheep

(How many?)

I've counted a billion sheep

(How many?)

Well at least a million sheep, I know

(How the numbers grow)

And I got about million more to go


(Ten thousand, nine thousand, eight thousand

Seven thousand, six thousand, five thousand)


(To fade)
