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

<brief instrumental interlude>

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
