Insomnia
[Intro]
Shaggy the Airhead on the beat
"Oh my God"
"Oh no"
"When humans corrode"
"Fuck, man, you look so old"
"You sure you ain't dead?"
"Seriously, you look bad"

[Verse 1: Violent J]
Hey, I'm up in my bedroom studyin' doom
As the sun goes up and down like a yo-yo
Dope-sick bozo, toxic, loco
Pop six NoDoz, the clock ticks slow
Don't wind it, or a dark demon will charge
Dislodge your skull like a spine broke
My plug he pulled it, my load exploded
Invoked a mind stroke
You know that my ears was blowin' out a blood red smoke
Rollin' off the ledge and down it float
Surrounded a meth head, astounded, cloaked
The fool inhaled it "Did it buzz him?" Nope
His eyeballs popped out and got stuck down his throat
He choked, "Get behind me, do the Heimy"
I did him one better, the "never mind me"
And while he died, I did the "you can't find me"
Seventeen thousand, six hundred and sixty-five
Now I'm countin' sheep
Jumpin' off a cliff, they each committin' suicide
They land in a bloody heap
I keep hearin' that flesh smack and that meat slap
Them bones snap, and that heap stack
I seen their feet tap, and that's when, in fact
It dawned on me, "That beat's phat"
But who's that creep in a cheap-ass sheep suit? Me?
Next for the monster leap
A dream, it's likely, seems it might be
Thang is, I'm not asleep
Mr. Flintstone imports Cuban cigars
And yabadabbles in cocaine
His do-bot Barney got a fly hooker for a wife
Sweet Champagne Betty Jane
Now Barney's ass hot as Betty's
Pink peckerwoods, yeah they lead separate lives
But if you dickin' Champagne Betty at her crib
Barney watchin' yo ass, jackin' off close by
Thoughts in my head bleedin' out of my orifices
While I'm fuckin' fine ass twin porpuses
Is this a grisly clown bein' eaten by my teddy bear?
Of course it is
[Chorus: Violent J]
I need some shut-eye (I just need some sleep)
Why can't I doze off? (I'm behind on sleep)
I need some shut-eye (I'm havin' trouble with sleepin')
Why won't I drift off? Why?
I need some shut-eye (I just need some sleep)
Why can't I doze off? (I'm behind on sleep)
I need some shut-eye (I'm havin' trouble with sleepin')
Why won't I drift off? Why?

[Verse 2: Violent J]
I'm assumin' you think I toss and turn
All day and night, but the fact is
Eight inches deep, my body outline pressed
Indented and print into my mattress
Layin' face down, my life revolves
Around the sounds of my neighbors' lives
Heard through the wall of my apartment
They fight, fuck, snore, fuck, snore, fuck, fight
But the other night wasn't right, instead of "take it to the face"
I heard "get ready with the baby wipe"
Then I heard the door bust in
Three gunshots, screams, I thought, "This is tight"
Cryin' all night, at dawn's first light
Loud music, tryin' to drown an electric night
Tape rip, bag zip, took a quick trip, tears drip
Slipped on a slipknot and rope gripped tight
Why can't I sleep? I'm so sleepy
Whole planet's sleepin' so easy
My brain is damaged completely
I'm creepin' (Come on)
Why can't I sleep? I'm so sleepy
Whole planet's sleepin' so easy
My brain is damaged completely
I'm creepin'
Miss Flintstone, Wilma goody two shoes
She love bakin' lots of cookies
Southern bell gone to hell, she learned how to make her pussy pop
And became the Octopussy
Gash flasher, known to pop paparazzi
For pussy pics, she's followed around
Throw a ball from across the street
That neden will catch it, toss it up, and swallow it down
No slumber, in just under a month
Or a month and somethin' dumb
I wonder why my tongue went completely numb
Stiff and dry, so I bit it off, "Now I talk like this guy"
My mind morphed itself into a mangled muck ball
Clingin' to the side of my skull
I'm tryin' to bash it with a hammer
Fucker hidin' from me 'stead of ridin' for me, one of us gots to fall
[Chorus: Violent J]
I need some shut-eye (I just need some sleep)
Why can't I doze off? (I'm behind on sleep)
I need some shut-eye (I'm havin' trouble with sleepin')
Why won't I drift off? Why?
I need some shut-eye (I just need some sleep)
Why can't I doze off? (I'm behind on sleep)
I need some shut-eye (I'm havin' trouble with sleepin')
Why won't I drift off? Why?

[Verse 3: Violent J]
Shaggy the Airhead on the beat
Am I dead? How come I don't feel pain?
I can't believe this, I've got powerful wings
And I'm flyin', just like I'm in a dream
Could it, could this be what it seems?
Enter karma, casting colors so bright
I'm rechargin', fill my body with life
And I'm breathin', somehow breathin' bright light
I'm not burnin', I'm cool and feelin' just right

[Outro: Violent J]
'Cause I'm sleepin' and dreamin'
I'm so colorful I'm beamin'
I'm jokin' my mind, where we goin' I'm fine
Said I'm sleepin' and dreamin'
You should take my hand and beam in
I'm jokin' my mind, and it's goin' so fine
'Cause I'm sleepin' and dreamin'
I'm so colorful I'm beamin'
I'm jokin' my mind, where we goin' I'm fine
Said I'm sleepin' and dreamin'
You should take my hand and beam in
I'm jokin' my mind, and it's goin' so fine
'Cause I'm sleepin' and dreamin'
I'm so colorful I'm beamin'
I'm jokin' my mind, where we goin' I'm fine
Said I'm sleepin' and dreamin'
You should take my hand and beam in
I'm jokin' my mind, and it's goin' so fine
'Cause I'm sleepin' and dreamin'
I'm so colorful I'm beamin'
I'm jokin' my mind, where we goin' I'm fine
Said I'm sleepin' and dreamin'
You should take my hand and beam in
I'm jokin' my mind, and it's goin' so fine
