I can't slee-eep at ni-ight

Keep seeing men all dressed in white

And they won't let my girlfriend talk to me



I said, what's goin on, you're just showin' off

Well I'm crackin' dow-own on your crackin' up

Then she up and left, it was lunacy

So they locked her up, threw away the key

In the name of modern medicine, they will leap

There's nothing wro-ong with her-er

That a do-ose of me won't cure

But they won't let my girlfriend talk to me



I'm gonna batter down all the hospital walls

Make 'em feel just about this tall

Go balleting through the corridors

Bounding through the canteen

They're gonna feel so mean, mean, mean

I'm not asking for mu-uch, but I feel so out of touch

And they won't let my girlfriend talk to me



They won't let her talk

Won't let her talk to me-ee

They won't let her talk

Won't let her talk to me-ee



They've got her now, they've got her good

They said they'd do-oo everything they could

I don't know why I failed to see

How they justify taking liberties

With my girlfriend down with me, me, me



I can't slee-eep at ni-ight

Keep seein' men all dressed in white

And they won't let my girlfriend (oh no they won't)

They won't let my girlfriend (oh no they won't)

They won't let my girlfriend (oh no they won't)

They won't let my girlfriend ta...alk to me ....
