I'm lying on the bed

With the paper in my hand

Turn on the radio

And listen to the band

And when I close my eyes

And I turn out the light

I find the same thing

Happens every night

It's called insomnia

It's called insomnia

That's what the doctor says

And he's so sure

It's called insomnia

It's called insomnia

I call it lack of sleep

And I need a cure

I've tried all kinds of pills

And also counted sheep

Read another magazine

Still I can not sleep

And when I close my eyes

And I turn out the light

I find the same thing

Happens every night

Repeat Chorus

And when I close my eyes

And I turn out the light

I find the same thing

Happens every night

It's called insomnia

It's called insomnia

It's what the doctor says

And he's so sure

It's called insomnia

It's called insomnia

I call it lack of sleep

And I need a cure

For insomnia
