Daylight Savings Man
The Great Daylight Savings Man: A Symphony of Self-Absorption
Lyrics
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8!
Counting off, energizing
Never ask me how I am.
Don’t inquire about my well-being
Couldn't give a... well dime.
Don’t care at all
Walk into a room that's full and instantly start talking about you.
Entering a room and immediately shifting focus to oneself
So deiceving, self absorbed.
Deceptive and self-centered behavior
Chained to yourself, get away.
Breaking free from self-imposed limitations
All my time couldn't be enough,
Not enough time for self due to excessive focus on others
Need at least one extra hour a day
Desire for more time for personal pursuits
To listen to you carry on about how much this stinks
Listening to complaints about life’s negativity
Or how much that sucks.
Hearing continuous complaints about various things
And its always a complete mockery of truth
Perceiving discussions as distortions of truth and life
And life that's inside of me,
Feeling a contradiction within oneself
Because... I'm the great daylight savings man.
Identifying as someone who expects special treatment
I think the world should stop an hour for me.
Wanting the world to pause for personal benefit
Yeah, I'm the great daylight savings man
Reinforcing the desire for the world to revolve around oneself
And I think the world should revolve around me.
Seeking self-centered significance in the world
I'm the great daylight savings man.
Emphasizing the desire for special treatment
I think the whole world should stop one hour for me.
Reiterating the wish for time to stop for personal reasons
Yeah, I'm the great daylight savings man
Reaffirming the desire for the world to revolve around oneself
And I think the world should revolve around me, yeah.
Insisting on self-importance and centrality
Revolve around me, yeah.
Repetition of the desire for self-centered attention
I keep on listening to you about you.
Continuously hearing about others without genuine processing
Hearing in one ear, no process, out the other.
Difficulty in absorbing and engaging with others’ concerns
It's hard to show you love though I try anyway.
Struggling to express love despite internal conflicts
Isn't my sincerety enough for you to let me be?...
Questioning if one’s sincerity is adequate for space
I couldn't run away cause you'll follow me anyway.
Fearing inability to escape constant attention from others
Climb trees and hide in bushes.
Trying to evade relentless pursuit by hiding
Your voice echoes through the land.
Feeling overwhelmed by someone’s pervasive presence
I try to tune you out, but there's no way without a doubt,
Unable to ignore someone completely
Because...i'm the great daylight savings man.
Reiteration of desiring special treatment
I think the world should stop an hour for me.
Wanting time to halt for personal benefit
Yeah, I'm the great daylight savings man
Seeking self-centered significance in the world
And I think the whole world should revolve around me.
Desiring the world to revolve around oneself
I'm the great daylight savings man.
Expressing the wish for time to pause for personal reasons
I think the world should stop an hour for me.
Reiterating the desire for the world to revolve around oneself
Yeah, I'm the great daylight savings man
Insisting on self-importance and centrality
And I think the whole world should revolve around me, yeah.
Repetition of the desire for self-centered attention
Revolve around me, yeah.
Continued emphasis on self-centeredness
Jesus help me to show them love.
Repeated pleas for divine assistance to show love to others
Help me to show her love.
-Help me to show him love.
-Jesus help me to show them love.
-Help me to show her love.
-Help me to show him love.
-Jesus help me to show them love.
-Help me to show her love.
-Help me to show him love.
-Jesus help me to show them love.
-Help me to show her love.
-Help me to show him love.
-Help me (10x)
Continued plea for help in showing love
