R.E.M. - Daysleeper lyrics
[R.E.M. - Daysleeper lyrics]
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 (wee oo wee oo)
The ocean machine is set to nine
I'll squeeze into heaven and Valentine
My bed is pulling me, gravity daysleeper
Daysleeper (wee oo wee oo) daysleeper
Daysleeper (wee oo wee oo) daysleeper
