歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] Twelve AM in Ohio state Fluorescent buzz, I love to hate The linoleum is turning grey I count the hours ‘til the day My name tag’s pinned on crooked now I’d quit this place if I knew how [Pre-Chorus] The Moog is humming in the floor A bell rings at the sliding door Cold air hits the cigarette pack I’m never gonna give it back [Chorus] Welcome to the graveyard shift Give your weary soul a lift Diet soda, cheap cigarettes No regrets and no assets Yeah, it’s 1981 Waiting for the morning sun [Post-Chorus] Oh, oh, oh Counting down the hours Oh, oh, oh In fluorescent superpowers [Verse] A man in denim buys a map He’s wearing such a stupid cap He asks me if the coffee’s fresh I tell him it’s a mess of flesh He stares at me, I stare at him The neon light is getting dim [Pre-Chorus] The Juno synth begins to swell I’m trapped inside this plastic shell Scanning cans of yellow corn Wishing I was never born [Chorus] Welcome to the graveyard shift Give your weary soul a lift Diet soda, cheap cigarettes No regrets and no assets Yeah, it’s 1981 Waiting for the morning sun [Bridge] Step outside the loading bay Watch the smoke just drift away The stars are hidden by the smog I’m just a gear, I’m just a cog But for a minute, I am free Suburban ghost, that’s me [Verse] The 808 is kicking hard I’m playing with a greeting card It says “Good Luck” in glitter gold I’m twenty-one but feeling old The milk is past its sell-by date I guess that’s just a twist of fate [Chorus] Welcome to the graveyard shift Give your weary soul a lift Diet soda, cheap cigarettes No regrets and no assets Yeah, it’s 1981 Waiting for the morning sun [Post-Chorus] Oh, oh, oh Counting down the hours Oh, oh, oh In fluorescent superpowers [Outro]
