Sun laying low and the world sleeping late

Oh I wish that they'd sack me and leave me to sleep

The alarm clocks gone over to enemy lines

Rain won't you wash these eight hours away?

Birds at my window sing in the dawn

By the time that I'm home all this day will be gone
G	      C   	  Bm7	      Em
Spend my life sowing what others will reap
