Ten Thousand, Four Hundred And Thirty Two Sheep

歌詞

I didn't sleep again last night And I'd like to discuss the matter The nerves to which I'm strung are tight And I'm as beat as a bowl of batter If old man Rip Van Winkle Thought his long sleep was a curse I know how the old man felt Because I've got his problem in reverse Ten thousand, four hundred and thirty two sheep How long can I toss like this? Ten thousand, four hundred and thirty three sheep What did you put in that kiss? I've tried all the remedies The well-known good advice Took a hot tub and an alcohol rub Did the alphabet backwards twice Ten thousand, four hundred and thirty four sheep We'd better get married soon Ten thousand, four hundred and thirty five sheep I'll never hold out till June How much do I love you? Just in case you didn't know You get a mental kiss With every sheep I count And I still got a million sheep to go (Did you ever try seeing see a doctor?) A doctor? I went to see a noted doctor Who's a famous analyst Then he led me to the couch And he gently took my wrist I paid him fifty dollars (Well, that sounds pretty cheap) Cheap! I should have paid him nothing! 'Cause I still can't sleep (Ten thousand, four hundred) and thirty six sheep (And one sheep that got away) He took another lamb! (Ten thousand, four hundred) and thirty eight sheep (Won't night ever turn to day?) Oh what a fool I am How much do I love you? Just in case you didn't know You get a mental kiss with every sheep I count (Add them all together That's a large amount) I've counted a trillion sheep (How many?) I've counted a billion sheep (How many?) Well at least a million sheep, I know (How the numbers grow) And I got about million more to go (Ten thousand, nine thousand, eight thousand Seven thousand, six thousand, five thousand) (To fade)
