For every night, I should've just left
In hindsight, I could write a book of regrets
Dyin' inside while I look at my texts
Who would have guessed last night I was a crook and a mess
Now I'm kinda concerned, the sun grinds on my nerves
Like a vampire hidin' from the light 'cause it burns
Try to confirm in my mind of what might've occurred
It's starry night, Van Gogh, yo, the night is a blur
I'm through with this, breathe stink of tuna fish
Hopin' 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 from my troubles
But a day of struggle?
Maybe I'm a whirlwind
But I can't save me from myself when
I know I say I'm never drinking again
I'ma 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 okay-ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy
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 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 nighttime
Nocturnal like I fight crime, the light blinds my sight, take my word
If you want a life where you never have a nightmare
You should try deprive yourself of sleep (my God, man)
If I, if I, 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 is 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
To do, to do it, 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 okay-ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy
The sun beats me like a drum
Ooh, ooh
The sun beats me like a drum
Ooh, ooh
The sun beats me like a drum
Ooh, ooh
The sun beats me like a drum
Ooh, ooh
I've been up all night (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 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 okay-ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy
