Night Owl

I don't wanna be
Well, I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be a possum, darling
I don't want to be the one
Staying up late until early in the morning
I don't want to be the one
Sneaking in the covers and
Waking to my lover gone
Love me in the daytime, darling
I don't want to be the one

I don't wanna be
Well, I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be a one-trick pony
No, I don't wanna be the one
Bored to tears when the circus empties
I don't want to be the one
Searching for a party
There's always a party going on
Love me in the daytime, darling
I don't wanna be the one

Love me in the daytime, and
When the lights go down
We can spend the nights together
And sleep before the break of dawn

I don't wanna be a night owl no more
I don't wanna act a fool
I don't wanna be some big fish, darling
Swimming in a shallow pool
No I don't wanna be the one
A lowly ne'er-do-well
If you love me in the daytime, darling
If you love me in the daytime, darling
If you love me in the daytime
I hope I never will
