The Big Light

[Verse 1]

Well I had a little feeling to have a big night

And I woke up feeling small and not so brave and not quite right

I had to face the who am I and where is she and what did I do

But worst of all I had to face the big light

[Chorus]

The big light came through my window and it opened up my eyelids

And it snapped them up like roller blinds and told me things that I did

I can't face another day and night of good ideas and complications

And I'm thankful that I didn't open another bottle of inspiration

Well

[Verse 2]

When the hangover this morning had a personality

And I cast my shattered mind over selected memories

I didn't even touch the light switch so I knew I'd never see

The Haggard face that would be staring back at me

[Chorus]

The big light came through my window and it opened up my eyelids

And it snapped them up like roller blinds and told me things that I did

I can't face another day and night of good ideas and complications

And I'm thankful that I didn't open another bottle of inspiration

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

Well I had a little feeling to have a big time

And I woke up to alarm bells like a big church chime

I had to face the who am I and who is she and what did I do

But worst of all I had to face the big light

[Chorus]

The big light came through my window and it opened up my eyelids

And it snapped them up like roller blinds and told me things that I did

I can't face another day and night of good ideas and complications

And I'm thankful that I didn't open another bottle of inspiration

[Outro]

Oh well it's fine to go out and have a big night

Sooner or later you've got to face the big light
