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 rhythm

I see today with a newsprint fray
my night is colored headache grey
daysleeper
daysleeper
daysleeper

the bull and the bear are marking
their territories
theyre leading the blind with
their international glories

Im the screen, the blinding light
Im the screen, I work at night.

I see today with a newsprint fray
my night is colored headache grey
dont wake me with so much.
daysleeper.

I cried the other night
I cant even say why
fluorescent flat caffeine lights
its furious balancing

Im the screen, the blinding light
Im the screen, I work at night
I see today with a newsprint fray
my night is colored headache grey

dont wake me with so much. the
ocean machine is set to 9
Ill squeeze into heaven and valentine
my bed is pulling me.
gravity
daysleeper. daysleeper.
daysleeper. daysleeper. daysleeper.
