I wake up in the hope it'll be a sunny day
A day that's better than before
Yeah I wake up in the hope it'll be a sunny day
Maybe this one's the one I'm waiting for
But then it hits me like a rock
And the devil brings me down, down, down
I wander through these filthy streets
On every face I see a frown
Boo
I get on the subway and I head to work
I got responsibilities
Yeah I get on the subway and I head to work
You know money don't grow on trees
Ow
Yeah I got a noonday demon
He is in hot pursuit
Yeah I hate my noonday demon
He's a crusty old coot
He chases me down
Like a lunatic on the loose
Hey noonday demon
Let's call a truce
I can't take any more of your abuse
Yikes
I get on the subway and I head on home
It's been a long and tiring day
Yeah I get on the subway and I head on home
Maybe then I might feel OK
But then it hits me like a rock
And the devil he brings me down, down, down
I wander through these filthy streets
On every face I see a frown
Boo
Yeah I got a noonday demon
He has got me in his sites
Yeah I got a noonday demon
He even haunts me in my nights
