How Can You Sleep (With The Light On In Your Head)? Songtext

How can you sleep with the light
on in your head? X2
He daid, "I'm guided by voices you know."
Then he laughs,
leans into a wall that he thinks that is there.
Burns his face on the lamp
and sparks up a joint.

He's not like the kid who pretends he's fucked up,
avenging his parents divorce.
He's broken for nothing
and he's bending for nothing
and he's made of titanium.

How can you sleep with the light
on in your head? X2

It was the musical joke of the year
as the crowed was waiting for the star to appear
...but you're just an alkie to me
and you can't deliver.
Remember how you cut your head off?

How can you sleep with the light on in your face?
How can you sleep with the light on in your head?

"I keep a lamp on in the hall
'cause the blackness is a serious thing;
and if I looked too hard
i don't think that I could do anything at all."

Every single one of his songs
is titled a number and starts with the chang:
"If you do not know the seriousness of life,
you never will at all!"

How can you sleep with the light
on in your head? X6

...Sleep... I can't sleep I can't sleep I can't sleep I can't sleep...
