Night Shift Anthem

(tick, tick, tick, go) Fluorescent glow on the linoleum floor

Rewriting pages till they don't mean a thing anymore

One AM, the coffee's gone cold

Turning the lead into fool's gold

Drafting, erasing, we work to the bone

Just another cog in the zone

(yeah,

work,

work) We write it down till the meaning is gone

Keep the rhythm tight,

we carry it on (hah) No sleep tonight in the

1AM light We polish the dull till it's shining so bright

Break room walls keeping out the night sky

Checking the clock as the minutes slip by

Edit the draft till it loses the spark Making our mark in

the dark

We write it down till the meaning is gone

Keep the rhythm tight,

we carry it on (hah) No sleep tonight in the

1AM light We polish the dull till it's shining so bright

Write it down.

Keep it tight.
