[Verse 1]
As I watch YouTube clips about clowns who sell meth,
I swear I’m hallucinating, one looks just like my cousin Seth
Cause I’ve been wide awake for so long
That even the meth clowns think that my mind is gone
Now of course it crossed my mind I should just go to bed
Could be alert in the morning, not sleepwalking like I’m dead
I could wash away the waste that’s cloggin’ up my brain
Nah, I can’t do that. It’d be far too sane
I really hate my alarm, but when I disarm
I snooze too late, and the cycle perpetuate
Fool, I’m the hypocrite claiming my body clock ain’t right
But I study Japanese all night in case I’m in an odd street fight
[Hook 1]
Keep spendin’ Tuesday nights
Learning the history of ancient Aztec rice
Keep losin’ sleep at night
Wondering why the Bulls let go of Bill Cartwright
Why do I spend my Wednesday nights
Shopping Amazon for discount egg whites?
Been spendin’ most my nights
Stayin’ up too late, now I pay the price
[Verse 2]
Look back at high school, I got complacent
I could live a normal life, wasn’t fazed by no sleep
So the habit stayed way past my teens
Too much television watchin’ and no time for dreams
I’m an educated fool with too much on my mind
Got a slow memory and sleep gunk in my eye
It’s become an awful habit that I just can’t break
Instead of fruit each morning, I crave a milkshake
Sleep deprivation is a dangerous game to play
Up so many hours, night has turned to day.
Up 23 now, but will I live to see 24?
The way things is goin’, it seems so
[Hook 2]
Tell me how did I go so awry?
I keep myself up all night, but cannot tell you why
[Hook 1]
Been spendin’ every Thursday night
On subways full of random men in tights
Of course, I spend my Friday nights
Reading up on the plight of the Israelites
Keep asking myself at night
If I remembered to turn off the oven light
Been spendin’ most my nights
Stayin’ up too late, now I pay the price
[Verse 3]
Overpowering your body? Nobody holds that power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
If you ain’t gettin’ seven, tank’s empty but it’s revvin’
It’s goin’ on in the kitchen, the sweet cravings gotcha itchin’
There goes my memory, immune system, and quick reactions
Added wakeful hours fell more like subtraction
Sleep when you’re dead, that’s what they said
Death is coming fast ‘less you value your time in bed, fool!
[Hook 1]
Been spendin’ most my nights
Stayin’ up too late, now I pay the price
I like spending Sunday nights
Assembling collector’s edition fighter kites
Why don’t you spend your Monday nights
Booking vacation tours in the Golan Heights?
Been spendin’ most my nights
Stayin’ up too late, now I pay the price
[Hook 2]
Tell me why are we so blind to see
Staying up too late just hurts you and me?
Now tell me how did I go so awry?
I don’t ever sleep, but can’t tell you why
