Twenty Five or Six to Four Chicago (#4 in 1970)

Waiting for the break of day,
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky,
Giving up, I close my eyes
Sitting crossed on the floor,
Twenty five or six to four
 
Staring blindly into space
Getting up to splash my face
Wanting just to stay awake,
Wondering how much I can take
Should I try to do some more,
Twenty five or six to four
 
Feeling like I ought to sleep,
Spinning room is sinking deep.
Waiting for the break of day,
Searching for something to say,
Twenty five or six to four; Twenty five or six to four
