Get up. 
Get up. 
Get up. 

Morning dove and dew and rise 
Bright and blue and sight for sore eyes 

World does not sleep and neither should you 
No curtains you have for me to seep through 

Might be morning might be day 
Yet you have the gall to waste away 

Decomposing bloated bile  
Sweet little lie: ‘just a little while’
