这首歌原本是Motown黑人Disco女星Rose Royce为同名电影演唱的歌曲，并夺得Billboard单曲榜冠军位置。2004年，正值Christina Aguilera发行《Stripped》（2002）和《Back to Basics》（2006）两张专辑的中间时刻，MV中她一头金色卷发和浓艳的装束，与后来她华丽的爵士名伶形象遥相呼应，可能这也暗示着她形象的转变，用业界评论的话来说，是“from grass to class”。
Y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch (This is a shark tale exclusive) Y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch (Here we go again) Y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch (2004, phenomenal hit) Y'all small tuna fish, I'm one big catch
Car wash, car wash, car wash, car wash Car wash, car wash, car wash, car wash (Yeah, let's drop it on 'em like this)

《Shrek》系列的原声带我都很喜欢，有许多不很知名（至少对于我这种菜鸟来说不是很知名）的歌手和乐队的作品。尤其是第一部，当然也可能是高中时期听得太多。之前我一直都不知道原来原声带可以像一张精选集一样收录这么多歌的——其实是没想到一部电影可以用这么多声乐作品作为配乐。Eels每一部都出现了（我指的是前三部，第四部的原声带我还没有听到），第二部的这一首，第一部的《My Beloved Monster》，第三部的《Losing Streak》都是相当不错的歌曲，不过估计还是《I Need Some Sleep》最受欢迎，最为人所知，因为那一段场景与音乐的搭配实在完美，太过深入人心了。
Eels，美国Indie乐队，作品常具Lo-Fi风格。主唱Mark Oliver Everett，常被称为E。Lo-Fi即Low fidelity，低音质。在Eels的音乐里，总是能听到失真的杂音，我一度以为这是上世纪六七十年代录音技术较差时候的作品。
《I Need Some Sleep》里，E虚虚实实的嗓音，不紧不慢地铺陈出一句句歌词，加上Lo-Fi效果，给人一种时空穿梭的感觉。整首歌安静得很，正好配合情节中静谧的夜里Shrek偷偷摸摸的动作和心情。八音盒伴奏和情节里的音乐盒呼应，音乐与场景衔接的毫无缝隙——值得说一下的是，音乐盒的音乐就是《Shrek》系列的主题音乐，第一部的原声带中收录了Dana Glover演绎的该主题音乐的Pop版本《It Is You (I Have Loved)》。
I'm not sure who's fooling who here As I'm watching your decay We both know you could deflate A 7 hurricane Seems like you and your tribe Decided you'd rewrite the law Segregate the mind From Body and from soul
You give me yours I'll give you mine Cause I can look your God Right in the eye You give me yours I'll give you mine You used to look my God Right in the eye
I believe in defending In what we once Stood for It seems in vogue To be a closet Misogynist homophobe A change of course in Our direction A dash of truth Spread thinly Like a flag On a popstar On a Benzodiazapene You give me yours I'll give you mine Cause I can look your God Right in the eye You give me yours I'll give you mine You used to look my God Right in the eye
Oh Zion please Remove your glove And dispel every trace Of His spoken word That has lodged In my vortex
I'm not sure who's fooling who here As I'm watching your decay We both know you could deflate A 7 hurricane You could have spared Her - oh but no Messiahs need People dying in their Name You could have spared Her - oh but no Messiahs need People dying in their Name You say "I ordered you a pancake"
You say "I ordered you a pancake"

Smile though your heart is aching Smile even though it's breaking When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by If you smile through your fears and sorrow Smile and maybe tomorrow You'll see the sun come shining through for you Light up your face with gladness Hide every trace of sadness Although a tear may be ever so near That's the time you must keep on trying Smile, what's the use of crying? You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile That's the time you must keep on trying Smile, what's the use of crying? You'll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile
