I get up and look at the clockStumble out, check my teeth to see if they've rotBrush em now, looking out for the hair of the dogHunt em down, on the rocks one coffee and I'm offI'm coming round 'cause the train I'm on don't wanna stopfor after effectand your loving the taste of the grog still up in his breathand the moment of reason is gone cluttered by yesNow you squint in the sunlight asking 'what's next?'Now I've woke with a shock in the nightAsking 'hey why are the shudders blocking the light?''Dude its midday''Oh could you ask Mario to borrow an extra lightto hit the pub or hit sixteen pads like a Tekken fight' (I'm thinking this is the game Tekken)I'm really just riding the day as I see itAnd the feeling I'm fighting away was quite decentAnd the precedent has been set nights agoDecadence and the predicate sunlight growsSo it's another all night to call dawnand though I got you on my mind I know your roll callI should take it as a sign and forget it allbut not much is black or white or straight forwardSongtexteBarr another invite, watch the wallAnother glass arse-wide, single malt(?)We play the stages of our time and look for the fallWarm out, moonlight, I might take a walkBut half of the punters that chasethe waste, the escapeThe uncharted estate steadily hard to relateStill the toilet looked better than it ever should'veand we drunkenly revel in itGetting full of all the drink and the devil and shitLive for the second, the minute, the momentBut I don't know if I'm copingDon't have the stamina, no hammer and tong hedonistYou go ahead me I'm not taking on Everest(??)Maybe thinking too much making assumptionsThis, that, seems sprouted I can't functionI slide into the bar I'm vaguely aware of the bizarredance macabre strangers pair offThe ritual starts with a tap on the shoulderBut the company here's just making loneliness colderSo I'm back out the door looking for lord knowsthe grey blue half light and the long walk home[Chorus] {x2}Here come the sunlightWe ridden the rhythmIt was a fun nightTook everything we were givenI had a night that I could never forgetA little this, a little that, and a little regretI walk through the door of the clubRub my eyes gravitate to the bar, its a hubOverpriced, it's like even the bouncer's on drugsYeh she nice, but as trashy as a cigarette stub with a glamour disguiseAll the more tired and worn, the music blaringSee me creeping towards dawn like a ferrythey take photographs with their phones I'm beyond caringI just take my smoky clothes home, put em' out for airingAnd in a second I'll reflect on the cheques and balancesA saturday night Bobba Fett and yet still manage toTip the break of dawn, we broke the laws of physicsBut for now I've got a cup of tea and a couch to visitOut like a lizard drinking, man I'm done with thinkingCalling peeps up and asking them to bring cigs, we done big tinsand any women gets the message grabHere comes the sunshine so I can't be had[Chorus] {x2}Swear there was something more to thisI dont know so I'm getting slowly pissedThe warm glow I don't know if you get my gistBut I'm cyclops like there's plenty of fish but I'm dry dockedAnd I'm content sitting here on the pier with no boatpatient, waiting for that ship to come in its so slowCould be the butt of a joke maybe clutching a smokebut this frustrated bloke is going to trust, hit and hope12 hours is a lot of time to get your drink onGot me thinking about the bottom line, where to kick onThis stamina is killin, softly slow the musicI'm hammered and feeling free got to hold on or lose itNow I know that the movement towards sleep is imminentI could keep it in a sit or take fatigue a prisonerSome help from a friend now at the end of the bagand get this night to extend it was the best I've ever hadWe greet with a kiss on the cheekit's awkward, you frown and ask where do we meetI laugh and should have just shaken your hand but who gives a damnWe pretend we're friends probably won't see her againThat's cool; this young disposable incomeGot me buying and justifying til the morning come Aus Songtexte Mania
