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, I fight dark forces in the clear moonlight
  Without fear
  
  Insomnia
  
  I can't get no sleep
  
  I used to worry
  Thought I was going mad in a hurry
  Getting stressed, making excess mess in darkness
  No electricity, something's all over me, greasy
  Insomnia please release me
  And let me dream of making mad love to my girl on the heath
  Tearing 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 taking
  sleepers
  But now I keep myself pepped
  Deeper still, that night
  I write by candlelight, I find insight
  Fundamental movement, huh, 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, I can't get no sleep
  
  I need to sleep, I can't get no sleep
