Tried to get along, but I've always come up short
Get ahead right or wrong, I'm not that competitive sort
All I've learned on the road, no diplomas where I've been
So why should I chose my side, in a game I could never win
I never get the peaceful sleepin', it's like some alien thing
Like to bring to my knees weepin', who knows what tomorrow might bring
That's why I'm sleeping with my teeth clenched, all night long
Be tossed and turn until my neck's wrenched, so much has gone wrong
Lately I been sleeping with my shoes on, in case the roof caves in
I've been sleeping with a gun, in case the man breaks in
I worried about keeping my job, I end up working three
No time for laying back, when I'm dead that's where I'll always be
White collar he turn his head, he live in his pretty world
His mother made his bread, and his wife used to be my girl
It's written in the Constitution, every man, woman, and child can make their share
While we're living in this two class system, one be ridin' while the other pay the fare
That's why I'm sleeping with my teeth clenched, all night long
Be tossed and turn until my neck's wrenched, so much has gone wrong
Lately I been sleeping with my shoes on, in case the roof caves in
I've been sleeping with a gun, in case the man breaks in
The boys who own DC, waltzin' with the Reaper through the Kremlin Gate
Oh when will we be free, from the feelin' that it's much too late
With nothin' I can eat, that won't kill me in my latter years
But these twenty-first-century feats have confirmed mans greatest fears
Here come Armageddon, threaten me with its peril and strife
Sometimes I feel just like Alladin, strokin' frantically to save my life
That's why I'm sleeping with my teeth clenched, all night long
Be tossed and turn until my neck's wrenched, so much has gone wrong
Lately I been sleeping with my shoes on, in case the roof caves in
I've been sleeping with a gun, in case the man breaks in
Ain't you tired of sleeping with your teeth clenched, all night long
