Every now and then, I pick a song that defines my state of mind, or whatever I am doing. Over the years, this has been The Scorpions’ “Wind of Change”, but right now, I am getting more aggressive about things.
So, to totally annoy at least one person who hates all things 80s and 90s, and especially any pop-rock song I choose, here is my theme until further notice.
Bon Jovi – I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead
Seven days of saturday
Is all that I need
Got no use for Sunday
‘Cause 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 gonna cry to you
I’ll probably drive you wild 8 days a week
Until I’m 6 feet under
Baby I don’t need a bed
Gonna live while I’m alive
I’ll sleep when I’m dead
Till they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna 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
’cause 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
Till I’m six feet under
I won’t need a bed
Gonna live while I’m alive
I’ll sleep when I’m dead
Till they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I’m alive
I’ll sleep when I’m dead
Sleep when I’m dead, sleep when I’m dead
Gonna 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
‘Cause 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
Until I’m six feet under
I don’t need a bed
Gonna live while I’m alive
I’ll sleep when I’m dead
Till they roll me over
And lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I’m alive
I’ll sleep when I’m dead
I feel like I’m exploding
Going out of my head
Gonna live while I’m alive
I’ll sleep when I’m dead
Till I’m six feet under
And they lay my bones to rest
Gonna live while I’m alive
I’ll sleep when I’m dead
Sleep when I’m dead, sleep when I’m dead
Gonna live while I’m alive, sleep when I’m dead
