I'm Not Losing Sleep - David Bowie

Yes, I’ve read the morning papers

Telling me that you’ve made money

Do you think I’m gonna crawl, then think again

Though I’m dressed in rags, I’m richer

Though I eat from tins, I’m healthier

Though I live in slums, I’m purer than you, my friend

Too bad, I’m not losing sleep

(Too bad) I’m just counting sheep

(Too bad) I’m not losing sleep, my friend

Look around and see the friends

The ones you left, our friends deserted

See the guys that used to talk and drink with you

Don’t look down your nose at me

'Cause I won’t ask your sympathy

I won’t be your yes-sir man for anything

Too bad, I’m not losing sleep

(Too bad) I’m just counting sheep

(Too bad) I’m not losing sleep, my friend

I would walk with you

Talk with you, drink with you

If you drop that halo that you’re wearing on the ground

Too bad, I’m not losing sleep

(Too bad) I’m just counting sheep

(Too bad) I’m not losing sleep, my friend

I can’t get my satisfaction

Knowing you won’t get reaction

What makes me the big attraction anyway

It’s too bad, I’m not losing sleep

(Too bad) I’m just counting sheep

(Too bad) I’m not losing sleep, my friend

Too bad, I’m not losing sleep

(Too bad) I’m just counting sheep

(Too bad) I’m not losing sleep, my friend

Oh, it’s too bad, I’m not losing sleep

(Too bad) I’m just counting sheep

(Too bad) I’m not losing sleep, my friend
