Early Riser

Early bird, you were born with your nose to the grindstone
You're a go-getter
Yeah, you run a real tight ship
Got no time for no layin-in-bed'ers
You oughtta know, I'm a night owl baby
my rhythm's just a little bit late
But if you give me just a little bit of patience
I promise, I'm worth the wait

I hit my stride when the sun goes down
But you got me turnin' to an early riser
Can we compromise
I can't help the way my wires are wound
But if you make the coffee in the morning
I can keep you up all night

You chew 'em up, spit 'em out and hit the road
Before they get a chance to come to
I'm not sure what you see in me
But I know what I see in you
You could never call me lazy
Got the stamina that you lack
So I don't see the need to be hasty
If you're 'round to pick up the slack

I hit my stride when the sun goes down
But you got me turnin' to an early riser
Can we compromise
I can't help the way my wires are wound
But if you make the coffee in the morning
I can keep you up all night
