Caffeine

Alice Cooper · Other Songs - Alice Cooper

I gotta stay awake

I just can't sleep

Because I know inside if I close my eyes

It will be the death of me



Because I feel the night

When the darkness creeps

That's when the shadows strike

That's when I must survive

Cause every night they come for me



I'm shaking in the ice cold shower

I been for here for about a week

But if I leave I could doze for hours

And that will surely be the end of a coward like me



Caffeine! Caffeine!

Amphetamine

A little speed is all I need

Caffeine! Caffeine!

Woo woo woo



I wont sleep at night

I won't rest my head

Cause I realize if I shut my eyes, I'm gonna wake up dead

I'm in a desperate way

I'm very near the end

And all I know's a triple shot of joe is my only friend



I'm shaking in the ice cold shower

I been for here for about a week

But if I leave I could doze for hours

And that will surely be the end of a coward like me



Caffeine! Caffeine!

Amphetamine

A little speed is all I need

Caffeine! Caffeine!

Woo woo woo

Woo woo woo



Caffeine! Caffeine!

Amphetamine

A little speed is all I need

Caffeine! Caffeine!



Caffeine! Caffeine!

Amphetamine

A little speed is all I need

Caffeine! Caffeine!



Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme...
