Did i lock the door and shut the coffee off?
Tomorrow ill clean the floor and buy some dental floss.
I hope i didn't forget to shut the car garage,
but still in my day i have no time for a pause.

Chorus:

I lie awake, and so many questions come.
I want to forget about them.
The things I have done, they come back to me
in this turbulent sea called sleep.

Ideas racing racing stuff to see and things to do.
Why do i care? go to sleep its 12:02.
So take some Nyquil® and rest your sniffly, sneezy, achy, pounding head.
Even though you know you're fine, it'll just knock you out instead.

In this time of unrest I just need to fall asleep.
Who pushed fast forward?  How is it already three??
Ill see what shows are playing upstairs on TV.
Hey, a rerun of Sesame street, but what kids are up to see...

I lie awake and my only company
are the muppets i see.
Maybe they're the key, to bring to me
the one thing that i need.
