[Verse 1]
Dear brain, won't you let me sleep tonight?
Even just for an hour
And I'll probably feel more alright
Dear brain, I don't mean to be rude
It's just some night I don't want to
Have to deal with you

[Chorus]
Dear brain, I'm so tired
Can't even close my eyes
Always open wide
Dear brain, won't you turn off tonight
Let me sleep all through the night
Sleep tight

[Verse 2]
Dear brain, I've been awake for such a long long time
That I've probably counted all the stars
In this stupid night sky
Dear brain, won't you tell me what's wrong with you
Tell me what to do or how to fix you

[Chorus]
Dear brain, I'm so tired
Can't even close my eyes
Always open wide
Dear brain, won't you turn off tonight
Let me sleep all through the night
Sleep tight
[Bridge]
Wish I could swap you for a better
Sunniness over cloudy weather
Raining down raining down on me
Wish I could swap you for a better
Sunniness over cloudy weather
Raining down raining down on me

[Chorus]
Dear brain, I'm so tired
Can't even close my eyes
Always open wide
Dear brain, won't you turn off tonight
Let me sleep all through the night
Sleep tight
