Tiger Lillies - Five O' Clock

From the Tiger Lillies album Ad Nauseam.
Photographs by Susan Meiselas
its our little penthouse, we call it our own,
it's got lots of features, a gold plated phone
and it's all that we've got to lower the tone
at five o'clock in the morning.
it's cock up and shut up, it's right and it's wrong,
it's see you tomorrow, be weak or be strong,
it's hit me or be hit, you know I don't care,
it's five o'clock in the morning.
the red ,white and blue, it's such a bore,
but it's better than being poor and it's better than being ignored at five o'clock in the morning.
so vomit your guts out on the floor, you know you will be a pawn even though we are the ones that you adore at five o'clock in the morning.
all I'll ever be is your whore, be is your whore, be is your whore. all I'll ever be is your whore,
it's five o'clock
in the morning.
yes it's five o'clock in the morning.
