My eyelids were 30-pound dumbbells
Those peanut butter chocolate bars had cast their spells
It was freezing outside, the snowflakes were large
My bed was a barge
My limbs were noodles
I’d been drugged
Long ago, I’d unplugged
So I made my way to the bedroom
My legs gave way
I tripped over the broom
The barge took off without me
But the hardwood floor was still lovely
I was so tired, I melted into a puddle
My Golden retriever didn’t mind, he lay down beside me to cuddle
12 hours later, I awoke
The dumbbells were gone
And my limbs were strong
My pup gave my shirt a tug
We took on the day
Sleep is a super drug
