Parody Song Title:

"Why Do I Always Wake At Night?"

The Lyrics

A song about insomniacs, by an insomniac, for insomniacs
I can't sleep at night
Everything just doesn't seem to be right
Just can't close my eyes
I'm plagued by insomnia through all these nights

Sleepy nights
Where have you gone?
I get the feeling I need sleeping pills
Why do I always wake at night?
Is it because I drink espresso after eight?
Why do I always wake at night?
Even when the moon is shining
I can't start feeling sleepy

I can't stand long nights
I'm being kept awake by inexplicable force
Alarm clock on the drawers
I think about the minutes all of the time

Sleepy nights
Oh, where have you gone?
I get the feeling I need sleeping pills
Why do I always wake at night?
Is it because I drink espresso after eight?
Why do I always wake at night?
Even when the moon is shining
I can't start feeling sleepy

Oh, where did the cosy sleep go?
And am I waking so?
It's so dark

I can't sleep at night
Everything just doesn't seem to be right
Just can't close my eyes
I'm plagued by insomnia through all of these nights

Sleepy nights
Oh, where have you gone?
I get the feeling I need sleeping pills
Why do I always wake at night?
Is it because I drink espresso after eight?
Why do I always wake at night?
Even when the moon is shining
I can't start feeling sleepy

Oh, where did the cosy sleep go?
And why am I waking so?
It's so dark

Why do I always wake at night?
Is it because I drink espresso after eight?
Why do I always wake at night?
Even when the moon is shining
I can't start feeling sleepy

Why do I always wake at night?
Why do I always wake . . . ?

Not bad, a bit repetitive though.
