about

Do you get up at 5:30am, just rarin' to go? Yeah, me neither.

lyrics

Well I ain't no morning person
As you can plainly tell
When that sunlight hits my eyes
I curse it all to Hell
Just make my strong and black
And somehow I'll endure
No, I ain't no morning person
That's for sure

At seven my alarm goes off
And I just hit the snooze
Another day's a-startin'
And it's giving me the blues
A day of toil and drudgery
It's more than I can take
Just let me stay in bed
For heaven's sake!

I said, I ain't no morning person
As you can plainly tell
When that sunlight hits my eyes
I curse it all to Hell
Just make my strong and black
And somehow I'll endure
No, I ain't no morning person
That's for sure

Hit that snooze, baby...

Oh, mornings find me grouchy
And ornery to boot
I hear that rooster crowing
And it's him I wanna shoot
So go and have your breakfast
And don't wake me up too soon
Just poke me with a stick
When it's past noon

I said I ain't no morning person
As you can plainly tell
When that sunlight hits my eyes
I curse it all to Hell
Just make my strong and black
And somehow I'll endure
Oh, I ain't no morning person
That's for sure
No, I ain't no morning person
That's for sure!

Painless Parker image

Painless Parker Brooklyn, New York

Born under a barstool and raised by a pack of wild koalas, Painless Parker plays a mixed bag of country laments, sea shanties, murder ballads and classic rockers, filtered through a grimy, whiskey-stained punk lens. He's fluent in two languages, and can cuss in at least seventeen. He enjoys rabble-rousing, shindigging, booze drinking and merrymaking. ... more
