( C C7M )
Receiving dept., 3 a.m.
staff cuts have socked up the overage
directives are posted.
no callbacks, complaints.
everywhere is calm.
Eb
Hong Kong is present
Dm
Taipei awakes
FG
all talk of circadian rhythm
CDmFG
I see today with a newsprint fray
CDmFG
my night is colored headache grey
CDmFG
daysleeper
( C C7M )
the bull and the bear are marking
their territories
they're leading the blind with
their international glories
EbDm
I'm the screen, the blinding light
FG
I'm the screen, I work at night.
CDmFG
I see today with a newsprint fray
CDmFG
my night is colored headache grey
( CDmFG )
don't wake me with so much.
( CDmFG )
daysleeper.
( C C7M )
I cried the other night
I can't even say why
fluorescent flat caffeine lights
its furious balancing
EbDm
I'm the screen, the blinding light
FG
I'm the screen, I work at night.
( CDmFG )
I see today...
( CDmFG )
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.
