Yes, i`ve read the morning papers
Telling me that you`ve made money
Do you think i`m gonna crawl, then think again
Though i`m dressed in rags, i`m richer
Though i eat from tins, i`m healthier
Though i live in slums, i`m purer than you, my friend
Too bad, i`m not losing sleep
[too bad] i`m just counting sheep
[too bad] i`m not losing sleep, my friend
Look around and see the friends
The ones you left, our friends deserted
See the guys that used to talk and drink with you
Don`t look down your nose at me
`cause i won`t ask your sympathy
I won`t be your yes-sir man for anything
Too bad, i`m not losing sleep
[too bad] i`m just counting sheep
[too bad] i`m not losing sleep, my friend
I would walk with you
Talk with you, drink with you
If you drop that halo that you`re wearing on the ground
Too bad, i`m not losing sleep
[too bad] i`m just counting sheep
[too bad] i`m not losing sleep, my friend
I can`t get my satisfaction
Knowing you won`t get reaction
What makes me the big attraction anyway
It`s too bad, i`m not losing sleep
[too bad] i`m just counting sheep
[too bad] i`m not losing sleep, my friend
Too bad, i`m not losing sleep
[too bad] i`m just counting sheep
[too bad] i`m not losing sleep, my friend
Oh, it`s too bad, i`m not losing sleep
[too bad] i`m just counting sheep
[too bad] i`m not losing sleep, my friend
