Receiving department, 3 AM |
Staff cuts have socked up the overage |
Directives are posted No call backs, complaints |
Everywhere is calm |
Hong Kong is present, Taipei wakes up |
Talk of circadian rhythm |
Chorus: |
I see today with a newsprint frame |
My night is colored headache-grey |
Daysleeper, daysleeper |
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 frame |
My night is colored headache-grey |
Don't wake me |
(You're) so much |
Daysleeper |
I cried the other night |
I can't even say why |
flourescent, flat, caffeine lights |
It's furious balancing |
I('m the) screen, the blinding light |
I('m the) screen, I work at night |
Bridge: |
x2 |
I see today with a newsprint frame |
My night is colored headache grey |
Don't wake me (you're) so much |
The ocean machine is set to night |
I'll squeeze into heaven and Valentine |
My bed is pulling me, gravity, daysleeper |
Daysleeper, daysleeper, daysleeper, daysleeper |
