Creature of the Night

I am a creature of the night It's the only thing that feels right Yeah, it's the only way that I get by I hope you don't mind Not as inspired in the daylight I'm too distracted by everything in sight If I just wait until everybody says goodnight I'll get it done right Midnight comes around there's no way I am laying down I'm on a roll, I'm in control I've got to keep the oil burning And my little wheels a-turning up the road It's all I know I am a creature of the night I am a creature of the night You're in a dream and I'm awake I could lay next to you but I would only shake And everybody thinks I'm making a mistake For staying up so late I'm squeezing extra hours out of days I may seem crazy, trust me, everything's okay And if the sun comes up the birds will start to play I've let it slip away It's in the middle of the night that I don't need to know what's right It's up to me where I should be I'm on my feet, I'm on my bike I'm doing anything I like I'm in a tree across the street I am a creature of the night I am a creature of the night Well every evening there's a fight Behind these heavy heavy eyes I'll be all right I'm sleeping when I die I know tomorrow won't be easy That's if anybody sees me I'm in the grass, asleep at last Midnight comes around there's no way I'm laying down I'm on a roll, I'm in controll I've got to keep the oil burning And my little wheels a-turning up the road It's all I know I am a creature of the night I am a creature of the night Yeah, I am a creature of the night I am a creature of the night I am a creature of the night
