I Wasnt Built To Get Up by The Supernaturals Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1998

[Verse 1]
Oh, the milk on my cornflakes
Is the same as any other day
It's just me that's been dragged backwards through a hedge
And the girl doing the weather
Somehow keeps it all together
But I feel like jumping off a window ledge

[Chorus]
I wasn't built to get up at this time
I wasn't built to get up at this time
I'm not the sort of guy that rises and shines
I wasn't built to get up
Built to get up

[Verse 2]
I've got backache, I've got neckache
I've got toothache and I need a break
But I've somehow got to get out of the door
And the DJ on the station, he is so damn irritating
Put a tea cosy over my head, I can't take anymore
[Chorus]
I wasn't built to get up at this time
I wasn't built to get up at this time
I'm not the sort of guy that rises and shines
I wasn't built to get up
Built to get up
Built to get up
Built to get up

[Verse 3]
I wish I could turn the clocks back
And spend a couple more hours in the sack
Anything at this time of day
Is like climbing Everest the difficult way
Difficult way
Difficult way

[Verse 1]
Oh, the milk on my cornflakes
Is the same as any other day
It's just me that's been dragged backwards through a hedge
And the girl doing the weather
Somehow keeps it all together
But I feel like jumping off a window ledge

[Chorus]
I wasn't built to get up at this time
I wasn't built to get up at this time
I'm not the sort of guy that rises and shines
I wasn't built to get up
Built to get up (repeat to fade)
