Just So
Black turns beat me bright,
Turning on the light,
Today is gonna be the day
You hear somebody say,
We need you right away.
Tiptoe over the floor
What are you waiting for?
So so and no more
Thats all to be sorry for.
Today is gonna be the day
You hear somebody say,
We need you wide awake.
You hear the moments kick and play.
The order of the day
Is hollering your way.
The window shade,
The nursing aid,
To let it all just work away,
From head to toe,
Where shadow grows,
Since forever and a day.
Quiet moments hum,
But some do you wrong
Today is gonna be the day
You hear somebody say
We need you wide awake.
No time for Tea or lemonade.
Some moments of the day
We're only half awake.
Drink a toast to the sun,
To the things that never go,
To the break of the day,
That is all I say.
