1. I DIG EVERYTHING



I've got the village I love
I walk along beside the garbagemen and I dig everything
I wave to the policemen, but they don't wave back
They don't dig anything
Ain't had a job for a year or more and I don't know a thing
Everything's spent and I dig everything
Everything's spent and I dig everything dig

I feed the lions in Trafalgar Square and I dig everything
I've sit just behind my window,
Till my cigarettes were low and dug everything
Got a backstreet room in the bad part of town and I dig everything
I'd see people in the street below, who don't know where they're going
They don't dig anything

Everything's spent and I dig everything
Everything's spent and I dig everything, dig

I've got more friends than I've had hot dinners
Some of them were losers, but the rest of them are winners
Rick, John, Sally, a connection named Paul
Holy low on money, their intentions are tall
We smoke and talk in my room
And we dig everything dig


I've made myself at home
I've made good friends which the time-check girl
On the end of the phone
All the movie shows
I sunbathe for love
Even when it's not too hot
Cause I dig everything
Oh yeah






2. I'M NOT LOSING SLEEP




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
