The afternoon has gently passed me by The evening spreads its sail against the sky Waiting for tomorrow It's just another day God bid yesterday goodbye Bring on the night I couldn't spend another hour of daylight Bring on the night I couldn't stand another hour of daylight The future is but a question mark Hangs above my head there in the dark Can't see for the brightness Is staring me blind God bid yesterday goodbye Bring on the night I couldn't spend another hour of daylight Bring on the night I couldn't stand another hour of daylight Bring on the night I couldn't spend another hour of daylight Bring on the night I couldn't stand another hour of daylight Bring on the night Turn on my V.C.R. Same one I've had for years James Brown on the Tammy show Same tape I've had for years I sit in my old car Same one I've had for years Old battery's running down It ran for years and years Turn on the radio The static hurts my ears Tell me where would I go I ain't been out in years Turn on the stereo It's played for years and years An Otis Redding song It's all I own When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When I feel lonely here Don't waste my time with tears I run 'Deep Throat' again It ran for years and years Don't like the food I eat The cans are running out Same food for years and years I hate the food I eat When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When the world is running down, down, down You make the best of what's still around, yeah When the world is running down, down, down You make the best of what's still around, yeah We five black guys that don't take the time This is the way we break down the line His name is not called with the most finesse 'Cause he can do it really good, he can do it the best Playin' up with Darryl Jones is on the bass Playin' funky-funky grooves all over the place Playin' Omar Hakim all nice and neat He can hang it down with the funky-funky beat Dolette M. and Janice P. Playin' background vocals for you and me Playin' everybody's got to get goin' with the thing For the man for the night It's Sting, it's Sting! Wave your hands in the air And wave 'em like you just don't care They be gettin' down with Sting sounds Everybody say oh-yeah (oh-yeah) Oh-yeah (oh-yeah), oh-yeah (oh-yeah) Oh-yeah (oh-yeah), oh-yeah (oh-yeah) You don't stop! Say it, one for the money, two for The Police, Come on everybody let's rock this place. Put your hands together, y'all Let's break: that's Sting! Hit it! Turn on my V.C.R. Same one I've had for years James Brown on the Tammy show Same tape I've had for years I sit in my old car Same one I've had for years Old battery's running down It ran for years and years Turn on the radio The static hurts my ears Tell me where would I go I ain't been out in years Turn on the stereo It's played for years and years An Otis Redding song It's all I own When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around When the world is running down You make the best of what's still around
