Adam Roberts - It's 5am Lyrics

It's the middle of the morning and everybody's gone, 'cause the party's almost over by now
I'm sitting at the table with Joe who's half asleep, dreaming all his dreams out loud
There's Terry and Sam who are really stoned, and Big Bad Willie singing on the telephone
And it's FiveAM and the party's almost over by now

There was beautiful Betty who was everybody's friend when the time to go to bed came around
And the rest of the women who needed a thrill, shaking their stuff to the ground
I'm just sitting here all alone, remembering the days when I was back at home
And it's FiveAM and the party's almost over by now

I remember how it used to be
Those times I had are just history
The sun is rising with all it's beauty
And it's FiveAM and the party's almost over by now

The garbage is piling as the rats start smiling, ready to feed their face
The people left here really just don't care about the looks around this place
But I really just don't know, whether to stay or leave or come or go
And it's FiveAM and the party's almost over by now

A couple of doors down I hear some sounds so I go to take a look
It's the queen on her knees just begging to please the waiter and the cook
I really want to part of this, I'll settle for her goodnight kiss
And it's FiveAM and the party's almost over by now

I remember how it used to be
The times I had are just history
The sun is rising with all it's beauty
And it's FiveAM and the party's almost over by now

The milkman's comin' as the paperboy's runnin', ready to start his rounds
The people are awakened to the trains that they're taking are making their familiar sounds
But now's the time for me to retire, for just another night has expired
And it's FiveAM and the party's almost over by now
And it's FiveAM and the party's almost over by now
And it's FiveAM and the party's almost over by now
