Why do I sleep at 8
When my friends all stay up late
Tell me why
They all have mobile phones
But I don't have my own
Can you buy
You can play on your phone and
You can watch TV
You watch it every night while we're asleep
You've a TV by your bed
Put in my room instead
It's better than lying here counting sheep
If that lizard on the wall
Should accidentally fall
On my head
I can hardly sleep a wink
I dare not even blink
It's above my bed
Please remove it from my room
You can hit it with a broom
Make a missile from a ball of rolled-up socks
Don't make a song and dance
Just throw your underpants
Or I'm going downstairs to play Roblox
What's on the floor (Those aren't my things)
It's like a breaker yard (It's my brother's mess)
Please close the door (I'm not through it yet)
But don't slam too hard (Just a moment more)
It's time to sleep (I'm ready now)
You must be up for school (I cannot wait)
But brush your teeth (I'm fully brushed)
Make sure you floss them too (And I've flossed them too)
So now it's time to sleep
And I've had enough to eat
I won't be waking up until it's bright
You can turn the lights out now
I will turn in as I vowed
There's only one other thing I have to say
Goodnight
