Morning regretter
Midnight doctor
Morning forgetter
Twitchin' and heavin'
Diggin' for treasure
Rhymin' and stealin'
Stealin' my leisure
Midnight doctor
Morning regretter

Who's that knocking on my door now?
Who's that crashing on my floor now?
Make a bed from the San Jose Mercury
Weekend edition

Midnight doctor
Morning regretter
Midnight doctor
Morning forgetter
Soar like an ego
In denim and leather
Royalty regal
High as the weather
Midnight doctor
Morning regretter

Full sails for loathin' and blatherin'
Tall tales of huntin' and gatherin'
Mystified by an astral phenomenon
Mercury comet

Midnight doctor
Morning regretter
Midnight doctor
Morning forgetter
Roll with the punches
Duckin' and weavin'
Clandestine lunches
Shuckin' and heavin'
Midnight doctor
Morning regretter

That's him desecrating the mantlepiece
That's him used a rug for a handkerchief
Stand back
After the pills kick in
Mercury comet
