Sleeping Standing Up
Every day I wake up and I don't know why I've done it
This day has just begun and I've hardly just begun it
I know I can't go back to bed, I know a can't run from it
So I just close my eyes
Chorus
And I am sleeping standing up, I'm fast asleep on my feet
I'm sleeping standing up, it gets me through another day
I'm sleeping standing up, I'm fast asleep on my feet
I'm sleeping standing up, it gets me through another day
Every day I go to work, I don't know why I do it
Every night I wonder how I manage to get through it
There's some dark secret going on that I cannot intuit
So I just close my eyes
Chorus
Gets me through another day
Gets me through another day
It's just the same as yesterday
So if you see me on the stream or out there on the bay
And if I'm acting strangly, like I'm somewhere far away
And if you say "Hello" and I don't have much to say
And if my eyes are closed
Chorus
Gets me through another day
Gets me through another day
It's just the same as yesterday
Goodnight
This day has just begun and I've hardly just begun it
I know I can't go back to bed, I know a can't run from it
So I just close my eyes
Chorus
And I am sleeping standing up, I'm fast asleep on my feet
I'm sleeping standing up, it gets me through another day
I'm sleeping standing up, I'm fast asleep on my feet
I'm sleeping standing up, it gets me through another day
Every day I go to work, I don't know why I do it
Every night I wonder how I manage to get through it
There's some dark secret going on that I cannot intuit
So I just close my eyes
Chorus
Gets me through another day
Gets me through another day
It's just the same as yesterday
So if you see me on the stream or out there on the bay
And if I'm acting strangly, like I'm somewhere far away
And if you say "Hello" and I don't have much to say
And if my eyes are closed
Chorus
Gets me through another day
Gets me through another day
It's just the same as yesterday
Goodnight
