Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

I'm Not Sleepin

When the town fool is a liar

And he's preaching to the choir

You've got a lot of explaining that you do

You see, no one likes a quitter

It makes us, oh, so bitter

So, drop your hat and sit for awhile

Ya see, every now and then

Again we struggle with our past

We try to stare it in the eye

And pray that it won't last

Most questions that get answered

They never make much sense

But I decided that I care

And I'll get right down to it

And I said I've stopped sleepin'

I told myself I'd never close my eyes again

I'm not sleepin'

I'm doin' now the best that I can

Well, I like it when you sit

And get straight down to it

It suits you more than anyone will admit

'Cause there's something in the air

And no one seems to care

Nobody will stand up, not even on a dare

It's funny how we fool them

With tears behind our smile

So tried and true, we plow right through

And hope it's worth the while

Most questions that get answered

They never make much sense

But I decided that I care

And I'll get right down to it
