Artist/Band: R.E.M.
Lyrics for Song: Daysleeper
Lyrics for Album: In Time - The Best Of R.E.M. 1988-2003 [2003]



Receiving department, 3 am

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



Chorus

I see today with a newsprint fray

my night is coloured 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

Im the screen, I work at night.



Chorus

I see today with a newsprint fray

my night is coloured headache grey

don't wake me with so much

daysleeper



I cried the other night

I can't even say why

flourescent flat caffeine lights

its furious balancing



I'm the screen, the blinding light

Im the screen, I work at night



Chorus

I see today with a newsprint fray

my night is coloured headache grey

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.
