Neil Patrick Harris plays a womanizer on "How I Met Your Mother," and now, the actor is turning on the charm to seduce ... Sleep?

In a hilarious new musical video for Sleep, a beverage that aids in snoozing, the actor croons a sexy tune on his rose petal-covered bed while giving bedroom eyes to the camera. 

"Ooh come on, don't make me lie here all night long!" he belts out. "Sleep, you're all I want 'cause you know how to keep me going strong!"

The actor also gets a little help in his music video from rapper Problem, who drops his own verse, and "Here With You" singer Asher Monroe.

For those who want to enjoy NPH's musical talents in person, your chance is coming. The actor will be playing the title character in the cult musical "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" on Broadway. The show kicks off on April 22, but the actor is hard at work rehearsing, and is sharing photos of his work on Instagram.

That includes a secret set he did in the Lower East Side neighborhood of New York a few days ago:

As well some of the uncomfortable bits of being a stage star, in this case, the problem with Hedwig's fishnet stockings. "First day of staging rehearsal for @HedwigOnBway," he captioned a photo of his bruised foot.
