Slept All Afternoon Lyrics by Jr. Gone Wild

Less Art More Pop! (Re-release)

1986

[Verse 1]
Now that the summer's over, cold is on the way
Longer nights and shorter days
Slept till afternoon is over, cigarettes and scotch all night
Not all that wrong, but not all that right
[Chorus]
I just don't like waiting at this red light
Waiting for anything
I just don't like waiting at this red light
Waiting for anything
[Verse 2]
Now that my money's gone, I've got to get a job
Sweat a lot just to get robbed
And my apartment smells bad, I've got to wash my clothes
All my stuff is getting old
[Chorus]
I just don't like waiting at this red light
Waiting for anything
I just don't like waiting at this red light
Waiting for anything
[Post-Chorus]
And I'd better wake up soon, I've been sleeping all afternoon
I better wake up soon, I've been sleeping all afternoon
