Receivin' department, 3 a.m. |
|
Staff cuts have socked up the overage |
|
Directives are posted, no callbacks complaints |
|
Everywhere is calm |
|
Hong Kong is present |
|
Taipei awakes all talk of circadian rhythm |
|
I see today with a newsprint fray |
|
My night is colored, headache grey |
|
Daysleeper, daysleeper, daysleeper |
|
The bull and the bear |
|
Are markin' their territories |
|
They're leadin' the blind |
|
With their international glories |
|
I'm the screen, the blindin' light |
|
I'm the screen, I work at night |
|
I see today with a newsprint fray |
|
My night is colored headache grey |
|
Don't wake me, so much daysleeper |
|
I cried the other night |
|
I can't even say why |
|
Fluorescent flat caffeine lights |
|
It's furious balancing |
|
I'm the screen, the blindin' light |
|
I'm the screen, I work at night |
|
I see today with a newsprint fray |
|
My night is colored headache grey |
|
Don't wake me with so much |
|
The ocean machine is set to 9 |
|
I'll squeeze into Heaven and valentine |
|
My bed is pullin' me gravity |
|
Daysleeper, daysleeper, daysleeper |
|
Daysleeper, daysleeper |
