about

I am so tired all of the time
I'd love to nap for the rest of my life

lyrics

I'm too tired to go to bed
I just want out of my own head
My eyes waiting for the sun
So I can go to work
And talk to everyone

Then come on home
Hang with my dog
Go to a park
Hope I croak like a frog
So I can just sleep
My dog in my lap
Layin in bed
Drink a little whiskey and take a nap (x2)

But I'm too tired to lay in bed
So I lie on the floor with my cat instead
Their sweet claws all in my clothes
I think it might be time for bed
But I don't really know

So I fall sleep
And wake up at four
Smoke a little weed
Maybe walk out the door
For just a couple hours
Before I come back home
And cuddle with my cat
Drink a little raineer and sleep alone
Sip a little beer and fall asleep alone

But I'm too tired to write a song
My eyes droop so low that
I'd probably get the words wrong
So won't you sing me one instead
Your voice is like sleeping
I can't get it out of my head
(sleepy mmm's till you fall asleep)

Who's voice is sweet and reminds me of sleep
And to my family
For letting me record them even though it can be annoying
