R.E.M. ☆ Daysleeper

Receiving 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 gray
Daysleeper
Daysleeper
Daysleeper

The bull and the bear are marking their territories
They’re leading the blind with their international glories

I am 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 gray
Don’t wake me with so much
Daysleeper

I cried the other night
I can’t even say why
Fluorescent flat caffeine lights
It’s furious balancing

I am 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 gray
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
