Godley & Creme 5 O'clock In The Morning
It's 5 o'clock in the morning You're lying in your bed You wonder why it's not morning in your head The day is open for business But still your eyes are closed You spread your dreams Like butter on your toast Open all the windows And we're rolling up the blinds All across the world Are people wiping sleep from tired eyes The faces on the curtains All the Jekylls and the Hydes are gone It's 6 o'clock in the morning You're only half awake The other half is shaving And the toothpaste like a snake Has slithered out the door of the bathroom And it's hissing in your ear Get up, get out, get out of here The sound of people being people Slowly fills the air And all the crazy things they do To get from here to there And when the one you're holding Runs her fingers through your hair You're on Shifting through the gears It's 8 o'clock in the morning It's been 8 o'clock for years The factory gates are opening To let the night shift out And the day shift in It's 9 o'clock in the morning You've been this way before But something seems to be different And you can't quite put your finger on it at all
