The Late Riser

Don't wake me up.
Just 'cause you're awake.
Don't wake me up.
Don't call me, don't shake.
Don't wake me up.
I want to sleep some more.
Can't you read "Do Not disturb" on my door.

Don't wake me up.
Don't turn on that light.
Don't wake me up.
I work at night.
Don't wake me up.
Get out of my room.
My alarm goes off at the crack of noon.

Don't wake me up.
Don't touch that blind.
Don't wake me up.
Please let me unwind.
Don't wake me up.
Don't increase my guilt.
Just let me lie here underneath my quilt.

Don't wake me up.
Don't want to be healthy.
Don't wake me up.
Or even wealthy.
Don't wake me up.
I don't want to be wise.
Can't you see I'm one of those night-time guys.

Don't wake me up.
My skin is cyan.
Don't wake me up.
I got a nightclub tan.
Don't wake me up.
I'm staying in bed.
I suppose you'll hold a séance when I'm finally dead.
