Dear Jet lag,

I am jet lag.

Jet lag I am.

Do you like awake-at-1-am?


Jet lag I am, oh, jet lag I am,

I do not like that jet lag I am.


Would you like some in your bed?

Or would you like the couch instead?


No, I would not like it in my bed.

We do not have a couch instead.

I do not like you, jet lag I am.

I do not like awake-at-1-am.


Would you, could you, with a barking dog?

(Who wants to be sleeping like a log?)


No, I would not, could not with a barking doggy,

His bark is making me quite groggy,

I do not like you, jet lag I am.

I do not like awake-at-1-am.



Would you like to hear a goat,

A hellish bleating from its throat?

Try it, try it, and you may!

Try it, and you may, I say!




I do not like the bleating goat,

And that, jet lag, is my last vote!

I do not like you, jet lag I am!

I do not like awake-at-1-am!
