Daysleeper — текст песни (R.E.M.)

(Buck/Mills/Stipe)



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 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
I`m the screen, I work at night

I see today with a newsprint fray
My night is colored headache grey
Don`t wake me with so much
Daysleeper

They cried the other night
I can`t even say why
Fluorescent flat caffeine lights
Its furious balancing

I`m 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 grey
Don`t wake me with so much
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
