(Verse 1)

Yo, the alarm clock’s ringin’, but I’m stuck in a dream,

Hit snooze once again, man, you know what I mean.

Early morning seminary, yeah, that’s the plan,

But my bed’s so warm, I’m the sleepin' man.

I know the scripture’s waitin’, but I’m catchin' Z’s,

Countin' sheep like it’s my expertise.

Mama’s at the door, sayin', “Get out of bed!”

But I pull the covers tighter, stayin' right in my head.

(Chorus)

I love sleep, man, I just can’t lie,

Seminary’s at six, but I’m still shut-eye.

I’ll make it someday, but right now I dream,

Livin’ in a world where the pillow’s supreme.

Yeah, I love sleep, and the rest feels right,

I’ll roll into seminary, maybe by first light.

(Verse 2)

Class starts early, but I’m always runnin' late,

Teacher talkin' ‘bout faith while I’m fightin' fate.

I roll in at 7, they already done,

But I’m still half asleep, man, this ain’t no fun.

Scriptures in my hand, but my mind’s in a fog,

I’m dreamin' of my blanket, not the word of God.

My classmates laughin’, sayin’, “Where you been?”

I just smile and nod, ‘cause I’m sleepin’ within.

(Chorus)

I love sleep, man, I just can’t lie,

Seminary’s at six, but I’m still shut-eye.

I’ll make it someday, but right now I dream,

Livin’ in a world where the pillow’s supreme.

Yeah, I love sleep, and the rest feels right,

I’ll roll into seminary, maybe by first light.

(Bridge)

I got my scriptures, got my pen, I’m tryin' to be true,

But it’s hard when the alarm’s goin' off at 5:02.

I’ll study late, I’ll pray real deep,

But don’t wake me up, I’m catchin' that sleep!

(Chorus)

I love sleep, man, I just can’t lie,

Seminary’s at six, but I’m still shut-eye.

I’ll make it someday, but right now I dream,

Livin’ in a world where the pillow’s supreme.

Yeah, I love sleep, and the rest feels right,

I’ll roll into seminary, maybe by first light.

(Outro)

So here’s to the beds, the blankets, the sheets,

I’ll be there tomorrow—yeah, when I defeat…

The snooze button… maybe. Yo, peace.
