Rise and shine, the sun in my eyes,
You chirped a "good morning," and I nearly died.
You’re brewing your coffee, all happy and bright,
I’m just a zombie, avoiding the light.

Oh, you feel so cool, so fresh and awake,
With your smoothie and yoga, for goodness sake.
But I’ve got a message, it’s straight from my heart,
You and your morning can tear me apart.

Good morning, my arse, what a wonderful day!
I’d rather be sleeping or wasting away.
Keep your sunshine and smiles, I’m not in the mood,
Your early bird lifestyle is totally crude.

You’re reading the paper, and it’s barely past six,
While I’m stumbling around like I’m caught in a fix.
You’ve been out jogging, I’m late for my job,
Just let me be grumpy, don’t act like a snob.

Oh, you with your sunrise, your glow, and your cheer,
Can’t you see that I am trying to sleep here?
My bed is my kingdom, the pillow my crown,
And your perky good mornings are bringing me down.

Good morning, my arse, what a wonderful day!
I’d rather be sleeping or wasting away.
Keep your sunshine and smiles, I’m not in the mood,
Your early bird lifestyle is totally crude.

You think I’m lazy, you think that I’m slow,
But you know what, buddy? You just don’t know.
The thrill of a duvet, the lure of a dream,
I’ll stay in my PJs, while you plan and scheme.

Good morning, my arse, yeah, I’m sticking to bed,
I’ll wake up at noon and then shake my head.
So go with your sunrise, your dawn chorus dance,
I’ll stay here in darkness, not giving a chance.

Good morning, my arse, and goodnight to your cheer,
I’ll see you at sunset, we’ll grab us a beer.
But until that moment, just leave me alone,
In the land of the sleepy, I’ll build me a throne...
