I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead Lyrics By Bon Jovi

    seven days of saturday
    is all that i need
    got no use for sunday
    because i don’t rest in peace
    don’t need no mondays
    or the rest of the week
    i spend a lot of time in bed
    but baby i don’t like to sleep no
    i won’t lie to you
    i’m never going to cry to you
    i’ll probably drive you wild eight days a week

    until i’m six feet under
    baby i don’t need a bed
    going to live while i’m alive
    i’ll sleep when i’m dead
    until they roll me over
    and lay my bones to rest
    going to live while i’m alive
    i’ll sleep when i’m dead

    so you’re looking for some action
    i got got everything you need
    better keep your motor running
    because i was built for speed
    this ain’t no slumber party
    got no time for catching z’s
    if they say that that ain’t healthy
    well then living’s a disease
    we’re never going to die baby
    come on let me drive you crazy
    we’ll make every night another new year’s eve

    sleep when i’m dead sleep when i’m dead
    going to live while i’m alive
    i’ll sleep when i’m dead
    seven days of saturday
    is all that i need
    got no use for sunday
    because i don’t rest in peace
    i was born to live
    you know i wasn’t born to die
    but if they party down in heaven
    i’ll be sure to be on time

    i feel like i’m exploding
    going out of my head
    going to live while i’m alive
    i’ll sleep when i’m dead
    until i’m six feet under
    and they lay my bones to rest
    going to live while i’m alive
    i’ll sleep when i’m dead
    sleep when i’m dead sleep when i’m dead
    going to live while i’m alive sleep when i’m dead
