Sleepin’ in the Daytime (2013)

Jimmy Webb

Sleepin' in the daytime
I can't bear to see the smoke-stained sky
Sleepin' in the daytime
I can't bear to see the work-strained people strugglin' by

Oh yeah, but nighttime's cool, dark and sweet
Oh, get the sound of one-foot dancin' down
Down cripple street
I do my sleepin' in the daytime

Sleepin' in the daytime
Hurts my soul to see the trees turn grey
I'm sleepin' in the daytime
They left their dying arms as if to pray

Oh as if to pray, the moon floats up, the sun groans down
And still there ain't no way of seein' the sore
The second sore side of town
I do my sleepin' in the daytime
It seems to get me on through, hey, hey, hey
I do my sleepin' in the daytime

Sleepin' in the daytime
Ever since they turned the river brown
I been sleepin', in the daytime
It chokes the girls with oil and drags them down

Oh, it drags them down and I have seen them half-alive
Oh, get the lookin' one-eye closin' down
Down on angry drive
I do my sleepin' in the daytime
It seems to get me on through, hey, hey, hey
I do my sleepin' in the daytime
