Overkill lyrics by Men At Work

Artist: Men at Work
Title: Overkill
Composer: HAY COLIN JAMES
==========================

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
of diving in too deep
and possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know will be alright
Perhaps its just imagination

But day after day
it reappears
Night after night
my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear
and fade away

Alone between the sheets
only brings exasperation
It's time to walk the streets
and smell the desperation

Well, at least
there're pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night
from overkill

Day after day
it reappears
Night after night
my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear
and fade away

Come back another day


I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
of diving in too deep
and possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know I realise
It's just overkill

Day after day
it reappears
Night after night
my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away
