I should care, I should go around weeping

I should care, I should go without sleeping

Strangely enough, I sleep well

'cept for a dream or two

But then I count my sheep well

Funny how sheep can lull you to sleep

So I should care, I should let it upset me

I should care but it just doesn't get me

Maybe I won't find someone as lovely as you

But I should care and I do


I should care but it just doesn't get me

Maybe I won't find someone as lovely as you

But I should care and I do

And I do
