(Verse 1)
Oh my beep, it's quarter past three,
But sleep's a distant memory.
I'm tossing and turning, in my bed I lay,
But why, oh why, can't I drift away?

(Chorus)
Oh my beep, why can't I sleep?
Counting sheep, but they're all on a leap.
No rest for the weary, no dreams to reap,
Oh my beep, why can't I sleep?

(Verse 2)
The clock ticks on, with its relentless chime,
But slumber eludes me, time after time.
I close my eyes, but my mind's on a spree,
Oh why, oh why, can't I be free?

(Bridge)
I've tried warm milk, and chamomile tea,
But nothing works, it's a mystery.
The Sandman's gone, on a holiday cruise,
Leaving me stranded, with the nighttime blues.

(Chorus)
Oh my beep, why can't I sleep?
My eyelids heavy, but my thoughts run deep.
No dreams to whisk me, into the deep,
Oh my beep, why can't I sleep?

(Outro)
So I'll lay here, in the darkness so deep,
Listening to my beep beep beep beep.
Hoping and praying, for sleep to creep,
Oh my beep, why can't I sleep?
