A Whole Day’s Night Lyrics by Hilltop Hoods (feat. Montaigne & Tom Thum)
For every night I should have just left,
In hindsight, I could write a book of regrets,
Dying inside while I look at my texts,
Who would of guessed? Last night I was a crook and a mess,
Now I’m kind of concerned, the sun grinds on my nerves,
Like a vampire hiding from the light ‘cause it burns,
Try to confirm in my mind of what might have occurred,
It’s Starry Night, Van Gogh, yo, the night is a blur,
I’m through with this, breath stink of tuna fish,
Hoping I don’t make the news or the Betoota with the lunatics,
Only came for a couple, we escalated to doubles,
My credit card is ablaze and what did I gain for my troubles? But a day of struggle,
And maybe I’m a whirlwind,
But I can’t save me from myself when,
I know I say I’m never drinking again,
I’m a give it away before my world ends
I’ve been up all night, I’ve been up all night,
I’ve got a bed at home I haven’t seen or slept in for days,
I’ve been up all night, I’ve been up all night,
I think I better phone my friends and tell ‘em that I’m ok
See you started work at nine, you were finished by five,
You were blazed by ten, and you were done by one,
While I hit the stage on time, so finished midnight,
Kicked on until five and was confronted by the sun,
I came from a little a bash at a club in the burbs,
Now I’m out with the trash and I’m up with the birds
And it feels like a lifetime, a whole day of night-time,
Nocturnal like I fight crime, the light blinds my sight, take my word,
If you want a life where you never have a nightmare,
Just should try deprive yourself of sleep, my god man,
If I’m loose and I lose all my keys,
You and I will always have a place to sleep, my garden,
They say that the mind’s a terrible thing to waste,
It’s also a dangerous thing to lose,
I used to say ‘What a Great Night’, but in the modern-day life,
It’s like, what a dumb thing to do
I’ve been up all night, I’ve been up all night,
I’ve got a bed at home I haven’t seen or slept in for days,
I’ve been up all night, I’ve been up all night,
I think I better phone my friends and tell ‘em that I’m ok,
The sun beats me like a drum,
The sun beats me like a drum,
The sun beats me like a drum,
The sun beats me like a drum,
I’ve been up all night, I’ve been up all night,
I’ve got a bed at home I haven’t seen or slept in for days,
I’ve been up all night, I’ve been up all night,
I think I better phone my friends and tell ‘em that I’m ok
