5am Blues

Seagulls rile me around 5am
And I've just begun to fall asleep
Its early or late depending on your thoughts
For me I've only begun to count sheep...
Bloody Sun's penetrating a crack in the blinds
Now my room is illuminated
So I'm pulling the duvet over my head
Not slept a wink, so now I'm frustrated!

Fuck it! I'm gonna get up now!
Thats just gone 6 o clock
Holly is niggling at me too for fuck sake
Poor dog needs out for a walk...
But me I'm still half asleep
My brain is telling my legs to go to fuck
Its not easy but the Sun don't care
He's just saying get up lad and good luck.

6.15 and I'm in the front street
There's not a soul to be seen
The sky is bluer than blue could be?
The morning dew's made the greenest of green,
Holly is scuffling around in the bushes
She's dignified so hides to poo and pee
Here I am at 6.15 am
Wishing I was still in bed feeling sleepy...

Well I'm up now and the days just beginning
I can do all the things I plan to do
Its early enough, if I just bash on
I can spend the rest of the day with you..
Chatting as we usually do all day
Well what else are Sundays for?
Hurry up morning, please go away
Let me sleep a little first like before...

Before the seagulls and sunshine
Before Holly was needing a pee
Before the morning dew set down on us
Before my brain woke up on me...
Let me sleep just one more hour, please!
Then you can have me all to yourself
I wont resist if I get 40 winks
I'd be out for the count by the twelfth.

Sunday, your supposed to comfort me
Your supposed to wrap me up all cosy
If I'm still tired let me sleep
Yes! even if I'm only feeling dozy...
Monday to Saturday consume me
I want to lie later than 5
So sunday please have mercy on me
If not then I wont feel alive!


Lol
