Lyrics

Rise and Shine -D. Furlong, © 2004

Sometimes the world outside is just a little too real
There?s stuff out there that?ll hurt you
And nobody cares how you feel.
But I?m safe and warm right here while I?m under the covers
And the thought of a brand new day has just lost its appeal.

Chorus:
I never liked getting up in the morning
I?d rather stay in bed.
Things can get ugly without any warning
I need to keep my head
Under the pillow, on my own terms
Let the early birds have my share of the worms.

Sometimes the world outside is just a little too cold
It?s all day standing in line
With nobody?s hand to hold.
But I?m safe and warm right here while I?m under the covers
And everything is moving along on snooze control.

(Chorus)

Sometimes the world outside is just a little unkind
Always got to be on time
Color inside the lines
But I?m safe and warm right here while I?m under the covers
And nobody?s telling me I better rise and shine.

(Chorus)
