Lots of specific time references in this classic song...

Well, hell, was yesterday Tuesday again? Hmm. Nobody snagged this one, seems so appropriate today in Iowa...

Six o'clock alarm
I get the wake up call
Let that sucker jingle-jangle
Ring right off the wall

I'm too low for zero
I'm too tired to work
Tied one on with a friend last night
And wound up losing my shirt
I'm too low for zero
I'm on a losing streak
I got myself in a bad patch lately
I can't seem to get much sleep
I'm too low for zero
I wind up counting sheep
Nothing seems to make much sense
It's all just Greek to me
You know I'm too low, too low, too low for zero
You know I'm too low, too low, too low for zero

Learned this one from Captain Kangaroo, not sure if it was the Johnny Cash version.

Sneaking in the closet and through the diary
Now, don't you know all he saw was all there was to see
The whole town saw Jimmy on the six o'clock news
His brains were on the sidewalk and blood was on his shoes

Up each morning at five o'clock,
Seem like the noon-day sun ain't never gonna' stop.
