A Whole Day’s Night (feat. Montaigne & Tom Thum)

For every night I should have just left

In hindsight, I could write a book of regrets

Dying inside while I look at my texts

Who would have guessed? Last night I was a crook and a mess

Now I'm kinda concerned, the sun grinds on my nerves

Like a vampire, hidin' from the light 'cause it burns

Try to confirm in my mind of what might've occurred

It's starry night, Van Gogh, yo, the night is a blur

I'm through with this, breathe stink of tuna fish

Hopin' I don't make the news or The Betoota with the lunatics

Only came for a couple, we escalated to doubles

My credit card is ablaze and what did I gain from my troubles

But a day of struggle?

Maybe I'm a whirlwind

But I can't save me from myself when

I know I say I'm never drinking again

I'ma give it away before my world ends

I've been up all night

I've been up all night

I've got a bed at home I haven't seen or slept in

For days

I've been up all night

I've been up all night

I think I better phone my friends and tell 'em that

I'm okay-ay-ay-ay-ay

See, you started work at nine, you were finished by five

You were blazed by ten and you were done by one

While I hit the stage on time so finished midnight

Kicked on until five and was confronted by the sun

I came from a little bash at a club in the burbs

Now I'm out with the trash and I'm up with the birds

And it feels like a lifetime, a whole day of night-time

Nocturnal like I fight crime, the light blinds my sight, take my word

If you want a life where you never have a nightmare

You should try deprive yourself of sleep (My God, man)

If I, if I, if I'm loose and I lose all my keys

You and I will always have a place to sleep (My garden)

They say that the mind is a terrible thing to waste

It's also a dangerous thing to lose

I used to say, "What a great night," but in the modern-day life

It's like, what a dumb thing to do

To do, to do it, to do

I've been up all night

I've been up all night

I've got a bed at home I haven't seen or slept in

For days

I've been up all night

I've been up all night

I think I better phone my friends and tell 'em that

I'm okay-ay-ay-ay-ay

The sun beats me like a drum

Ooh, ooh

The sun beats me like a drum

Ooh, ooh

The sun beats me like a drum

Ooh, ooh

The sun beats me like a drum

Ooh, ooh

I've been up all night (Night)

I've been up all night

I've got a bed at home I haven't seen or slept in

For days (I've been up for days)

I've been up all night

I've been up all night

I think I better phone my friends and tell 'em that

I'm okay-ay-ay-ay-ay
