nine thirty I cannot believe / how tired I am now
my brane don't work right / and I'm snapping at everybody
stumbling around in the basement / scooping out the litter boxes
and there's no "24" tonight / the videotape is at work
so I mumble goodnight and / plod upstairs to my bed

suddenly my mind is floating / on the fluffiest of clouds
usually I average five hours / this is like a vacation
I awaken briefly twice but / both times shut back down
when I awaken everything's clear / I am groggy but vibrant
is this how all you / people feel all the time
