Don't Want to Sleep Tonight Songtext
von Malcolm Middleton

I don′t want to sleep tonight
I'm going to stay up until tomorrow
I′ve made it through another day
I've gone and thrown another day away

Everything I do is redundant
Everything I say is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I've been left behind

I can′t help coming to in songs
I get so far then can′t carry on
A strummed guitar's a companion
A blackboard bleeding chalk sums of all my wrongs

Everything I do is redundant
Everything I sing is a lie
Whatever I once had is gone
Now I′ve been left behind


Underlying text and emotions
Have been replaced by production
I'd rather have it rhyme and tell a lie
Honest thought and the expression
Second place to promotion
I′d rather have the money than spend the time

I don't want to sleep tonight
I′m going to stay up until tomorrow
I've made it through another day
I've gone and thrown another day away

I don′t want to sleep tonight
I′m going to stay up until tomorrow
I've made it through another day
I′ve gone and thrown another day away

I don't want to sleep tonight
I′m going to stay up until tomorrow
I've made it through another day
I′ve gone and thrown another day away

I don't want to sleep tonight
I'm going to stay up until tomorrow
I′ve made it through another day (I′ve made it through another day)
I've gone and thrown another day away (another day away)

I don′t want to sleep tonight
