lyrics

I woke up with my head on my hands On my desk top
There was an imprint of my stapler
In the side of my head
Shook my head, wiped off my chin
On my shoulder
Oh Jesus, look at the time
I’ve got things to deliver

I’ve got memos and papers
And products of labor
Time sheets and pie graphs
On public behavior
I’d rather go back to sleep
And be dreaming of Maria
Yes drooling and dreaming of Maria

I woke up with my head on my hands On my steering wheel
I’d skidded right off the road
And onto the shoulder
I flagged down a red Chevrolet
He flipped me off and then drove away

The tow truck pulls me
Onto the pavement
The Highway Patrolman Asks for a Statement, so I say, OK
I’d rather be dreaming of Maria

I am dead asleep
Maria is hogging the covers again
Can’t help but notice
She’s digging her teeth in my shoulder
I feel her climbing on top of me
She says c’mon wake up
And make love to me

We struggle, it’s no use
She’s stronger than I am
I tell her I’m tired
She’s grabbing her diaphragm, oh god
I’d rather go back to sleep
And be dreaming of Maria
