Drip drop drip rap the droplets on the bins outside my window
Tick tock tick I've only got so long before I need to wake
Drip drop drip is the soundtrack to my dream of distant slumber
Tick tock tick tock tick it soon adds up, adds up to a night
I'm just so busy busy busy
I'm a very busy bee
I'm always feeling tired but I never get to sleep
My mind is always racing
Even when I'm still
I lie awake and think about the contents of my will
And if 'you snooze you lose' is true
By now I should have won
Some kind of prize, my heavy eyes betrayed by rising sun.
But I find no consolation
In the fading constellations
Or drip drop drip
Its the hour of the witch
Please let me sleep.
Drip drop drip ideas are tears in a pool of moonlight
Tick tock tick I've only got so long before I need to work
It should be work then sleep then work then rest
Not work then wake, repeat til death
But tick tock tick it soon adds up to a lifetime
I'm just so busy busy busy
Its how I've always been
I never feel tired and I never go to sleep
I'm always doing something
Even when I'm not
I plan for the apocalypse in silent sleepless rot
And if 'if you snooze you lose' is true
By now I must have won
Some kind of prize, but I've missed the night and it's 7.21
And I've found no consolation
In late night conversations
With my circadian frustrations
Which hold no invitation
Or the drip drop drip drop drip drop drip
I'm a cranky sleepless pissed off bitch
And the tick tock tick tock tick tock tick
Doesn't end with the beep beep beep beep beep beep
Please

The last verse made me laugh. You have a certain turn of phrase.
Thanks for the kind words
