5:09 - Morphine

Lying here with purple pillows propping up my sleepy head

Nothing that I have to do that I can’t do in bed

I got a box of fancy chocolates

A bourbon by my side

And I’m lookin' forward to more of the same

Now I’m running naked down the interstate

I got headlights in my eyes and a semi on my trail

And there’s something in the trunk that I think is still alive

I was trying to catch a plane that leaves at 5:09

Now I’m running naked down the interstate

I got headlights in my eyes and a semi on my trail

And there’s something in the trunk that I think is still alive

I was trying to catch a plane that leaves at 5:09

I know about 100 people and they all know me

They offer me a sandwich or maybe something to drink

And my world is filled with their confidiality

Same kind of life I lead in the 14th century

But now I’m running naked down the interstate

I got headlights in my eyes and a semi on my trail

And there’s something in the trunk that I think is still alive

I was trying to catch a plane that leaves at 5:09

Now I’m running naked down the interstate

I got headlights in my eyes and a semi on my trail

And there’s something in the trunk that I think is still alive

I was trying to catch a plane that leaves at 5:09

Riding around in a glider way up here without a care

I got all the time in the world, yeah, all the time in the world to spare

Riding around forever on an empty tank of gas

And an empty pocketbook.

Better get it to the bank

Now I’m running naked down the interstate

I got headlights in my eyes and a semi on my trail

And there’s something in the trunk that I think is still alive

I was trying to make a plane that leaves at 5:09

Yeah

I was trying to catch a plane that leaves at 5:09
