from The Nightshift Watchman
|
..............................................
|
|
I'm the Nightshift Watchman for the planet
|
Five days a week I watch the tube
|
Five nights a week I'm waching radar
|
Easy Job with nothing much to do
|
|
Waiting in my air conditioned office
|
Down a thousand feet below the sand
|
Looking at the lines upon my finger
|
Thinking of the power in my hand
|
|
Chorus
|
|
If I do my job my job is over
|
If I start my day my days are through
|
If I set to work my work is over
|
Soon as I begin we'll all be through
|
|
I'm the nightshift watchman
|
I'm the nightshift watchman
|
|
Watching for some movement in the heavens
|
Waiting for some action down below
|
When it comes I'll follow my directions
|
When it comes its time for us to go
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Well I've a hand that looks alot like your hand
|
and I've a heart that feels the same as you
|
and I've a house and family on the surface
|
Someone's got to do this job I do.
|
|
I'm the Nightshift Watchman
|
I'm the Nightshift Watchman
|
I'm the Nightshift Watchman
|
I'm the Nightshift Watchman
