"Insomnia Blues"

A pleasant hours sleep
A precious hour stolen, yours to keep
Half of your brain cells willingly
Sacrificed
You don't miss your short-term memory
I have to say you were sacrificed willingly
Skinny dipping in the primordial ooze
That's your father on the 10 o' clock news
Dripping skin
Knee-jerk life
Insomnia blues
The present hour's death
Is fast approaching, hold your breath
All your oxygen willingly
Sacrificed
Don't want to see the turn of the century
The mortal coil severed gratefully
Still we're swimming in the primordial ooze
Everyone you meet in your dreams is You
Suddenly grim
Hang-knot tie
Insomnia blues
