Insomnia at 89
So it is you Mr. half past three
And just what do you think you are doing to me.
Now Mr. half past five
Please take note that I am still alive
And now you Mr. Half past six
I suppose you think you’ve got me in a hell ava fix
But no, Mr. Half past Nine
Those three hours sleep were simply fine
So please take note Old Father Time
That at 89 I am still hitting that line
And I will till the end of the time of the time that is mine
And then, well good luck to you Old Father Time
I will then go to sleep and sleep all the way to the end of your line.
