SLEEP
Sometimes at night
When I can’t sleep
I start to count
Those stupid sheep
One by one
Or two by two
So then I have
Something to do
I hope I don’t
Seem really dumb
But where the heck
Do they come from
I’m sure it’s not
This great big flock
That they break out of
Around the clock
They must wind up
In some large pen
Something, big enough
To keep them in
They can’t just go
On their merry way
You can’t just let them
Go astray
So I wait
For Little Bo Beep
To take her flock
And let me sleep
