now i lay me down to sleep
praying i shall never wake
that my slumber be eternal
and my damnation not infernal
if having a soul be my fate
let it just dissipate
for if there be heaven or hell
i'll pass on them as well
let me go to never return
as neither man nor worm
with all forms of life i'm through
being sick and tired and blue
