Lyrics: Spocks Beard. Day For Night.

Day for night
I can't wait 'til the time is right
Like a gun waits for war
Like the sun waiting for a light

Pound away
Get it done in just half a day
'Neath the sweltering sky
Get it done, don't ask why, why

Don't you want to live my way?
Living day for night
Don't you want to live my way?

Why you want to keep trying?
You never get it right
When you could be living day for night

Live my dream
There's no dancing in between
Why not let it go?
There's no sense being so extreme

Act instead
There's no life living in your head
The director's long gone
Still the play goes on
And on and on, come on

Don't you want to live my way?
Living day for night
Don't you want to live my way?

Why you want to keep trying?
You never get it right
When you could be living day for night

Don't you want to live my way?
Don't you want to live my way?

Why you want to keep trying?
You never get it right
When you could be living day for night

Your dreams were disappearing
So you disappeared into your head
There's no freshness in your feelings
So you feel like going back to bed
As the mercury rises
There are still some surprises

Day for night there's no time
There's no end in sight
Not a moment to lose
There's no voice you can't choose
Come on

Don't you want to live my way?
Living day for night
Don't you want to live my way?

Why you want to keep trying?
You never get it right
When you could be living day for night

Don't you want to live my way?
Don't you want to live my way?
Don't you want to live my way?
We could be living day for night

Don't you want to live my way?
Don't you want to live my way?
Don't you want to live my way?
Day for night
