Where I hung my coat, it's where I left my head
So you'd be wise to doubt every word I ever said
'Cause I just want to eat some chocolate
And go straight back, I'll go straight back to bed
Where's my head?
Where's my head?
Where's my head?
Where's my head?
And I'd search for reason I'm awake
To hear this song march, blasphemy I'd stake
And the only chance that I have tonight
Is if something made my dreams not right
And my love shows up in a dress of white
Where's my head?
Where's my head?
Where's my head?
Where's my head?
That said; I think that this song is about a young man who loves a girl but is not loved in return; he can't sleep, because of the devastation he is feeling.
The first verse would then be him trying to justify and explain why he can't sleep, and recognizing that he's not making any sense; he just wants to be left alone with his pain.
The second would then, in the case of unrequited love, be about how he would give anything for her, but knows he can't have her unless he dreams... Which he does for the rest of the album.
To start with, the lyrics are wrong:
