NIGHT SHIFT-2 (Alt 1)

Intro

Verse 1 Clock says eleven fifty-seven Parking lot is black and cold Coffee tastes like burnt transmission Same as every night I've known Steel toes crossing yellow lines Blue sparks falling like rain Day crew left the building quiet We came in and woke the place

Chorus Night shift Sun don't know my name Punch in under darkness Punch out looking the same Night shift While the whole town dreams We keep the wheels turning We keep feeding the machines

Verse 2 Ray's got three kids and a mortgage Jenny welds another seam Nobody here makes the papers Nobody gets called a king Three fifteen beneath the white lights Hands black, eyes burning red Morning's coming for somebody We ain't finished with the night yet

Bridge One more hour One more run Somebody else Gets the sun We don't need Our names in lights Just keep it moving Through the night Night shift Sun don't know my name We wear midnight on our shoulders Sparks inside our veins Night shift Let the daylight take the praise We kept this whole damn town alive While everybody slept away
