Daysleeper

  Receiving dept., 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 rythm 

  I see today with a newsprint fray 
  My night is colored headache grey 
  Daysleeper 

  The bull and the bear are marking 
  Their territories 
  They're leading the blind with 
  Their international glories 

  I'm the screen, the blinding 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. 
  Daysleeper 

  I cried the other night 
  I can't even say why 
  Fluorescent flat caffeine lights 
  Its furious balancing 

  I'm the screen, the blinding light 
  I'm the screen, i work at night. 
  I see today... 
  Don't wake me with so much.. the 
  Ocean machine is set to 9 
  I'll squeeze into heaven and valentine 
  My bed is pulling me, 
  Gravity 
  Daysleeper. daysleeper. 
  Daysleeper. daysleeper. daysleeper.
