pullin' an all nighter

i'm pullin' an all nighter
stayin' up for 24 hours or more
tryin' to get lighter
for what's in store

this time change
made me re-arrange

lost my time
in day-light savings

but it's the nights
that change

i sleep all day
and i stay awake
thru the nights

so i decided
to stay up
'till tomorrow
becomes today
and then yesterday
has passed it's own way

maybe then...
maybe when...
it's been a day or two
i'll pass thru

to today
& i'll quit livin'
in yesterday
or waitin' for tomorrow

maybe then
i won't borrow
time
from today
still payin' for yesterday
waitin' for tomorrow to go away

Never put off things you can do today
for tomorrow might never comes
light that cigarette today
and have a good sleep
for tomorrow will be
a brand new day for
a brand new you.
