I Can’t Sleep Lyrics by The La’s (Band)

The La’s [Deluxe Edition]

1990

[Verse 1]
I was lookin' through my window
I was lookin' through my eyes
And there's a big black car coming
Get off the street outside – come in
Go into a pipe-dream, no-one listens anyway
[Chorus]
When I say
I'm so
Sad about
Not so glad about
I'm so mad – I can't sleep tonight
[Verse 2]
I was going through a nightmare
I was layin' on the line
And there's a big black train coming
D'ya think it would be a shame running?
Go into a bathroom
No-one looking anyway
[Chorus]
When I say
I'm so sad about
I'm not so glad about
I'm so mad
I can't sleep tonight
[Verse 1]
I was looking through my window
I was looking through my eyes
And there's a big black cloud coming
Get off the street outside – come in
Go into a pipe-dream no-one listens anyway
[Chorus]
When I say I'm so sad about, not so glad about
I'm so mad – I can't sleep tonight
