Warren Zevon - I'll Sleep When I'm Dead - 1976 - Philadelphia

Audio of WZ performing I'll Sleep When I'm Dead from the Main Line in Philadelphia -1976. And for the record, Jann Wenner is a dick who's keeping WZ out of the HOF for personal reasons
So much to do, there's plenty on the farm
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Saturday night I like to raise a little harm
I'll sleep when I'm dead
I'm drinking heartbreak motor oil and Bombay gin
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Straight from the bottle, twisted again
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Well, I take this medicine as prescribed
I'll sleep when I'm dead
It don't matter if I get a little tired
I'll sleep when I'm dead
I've got a .38 special up on the shelf
I'll sleep when I'm dead
If I start acting stupid
I'll shoot myself
I'll sleep when I'm dead
So much to do, there's plenty on the farm
I'll sleep when I'm dead
Saturday night I like to raise a little harm
I'll sleep when I'm dead

The views are exactly 20,000. And the power level clearly exceedes 9,000.

This takes on another meaning for me,I have seizures often when I sleep and then sleep for another day,so is like skipping a day in time,like a time warp or evolving door,or have flatlined and woke up 3 days later,more time warp? Live it while you have it. PEACE TAKE PRACTICE.:) Rick

He's not rock'n'roll enough for the hall of fame? I'm drinking Heartbreak motor oil and Bombay gin... That's just a taste of his genius.

One of my favorite lines in music ever: "I've got a .38 special up on the shelf, if I start acting stupid I'll shoot myself"

Warren was fond of collecting guns. Unfortunately, he often used his firearms while intoxicated. Thankfully, nobody was harmed, but wife Crystal reported there were holes in the walls of their house ...
