From the recording Hi, I'm Josh!
Lyrics
Alarm go off, I’m like “shut the fuck up”
Smack that bitch blind, roll over, curl up
Eyes still sealed like a goddamn vault
Morning can wait, not my fucking fault
Blanket got me locked like a padded cell
World say, “get up,” I say “go to hell”
Sunlight creepin in, I’m pissed already
Whole vibe rotten, attitude heavy
Brain still dreamin, body dead weight
Life knockin loud, I ain’t answerin the gate
Coffee can beg, toast can burn
I’ll wake up when I fucking feel like it’s my turn
[Chorus]
I’m the Morning Monster, rude as shit
Don’t talk to me, don’t breathe, don’t exist
j DUDs in the bed like a grumpy king
Middle finger up to every damn thing
I’m the Morning Monster, rage on sight
If it’s before noon, we can fucking fight
Ain’t shit gonna wake me, not noise, not thunder
Got a full-on morning wood and I still stay under
Phone buzz poppin, I decline that shit
“Good morning :)” yeah I ain’t replyin, bitch
Mirror lookin back like “you look rough”
I’m like “no shit, I woke up, that’s enough”
To-do list long, I don’t give a damn
Fold that paper up like “not today, man”
People talkin goals, discipline, grind
I’m tryin to locate my fucking mind
Shower runnin hot, steam in the air
But my ass still glued like I live in that chair
Breakfast on the table, eggs actin proud
I stare ‘em down like “don’t speak too loud”
[Chorus]
I’m the Morning Monster, cranky as fuck
Bad mood permanent, zero luck
j DUDs, captain of the “leave me alone”
If peace had a sound, it’s a silent phone
I’m the Morning Monster, venom and yawns
Cussin out daylight like it did me wrong
Try to wake me early? better come stronger
I’ll cuss out existence, hit snooze even longer
Neighbors jog past, think they so clean
I’m in bed like “what the fuck does that mean?”
Birds chirpin loud like they own the sky
I throw a pillow like “shut the fuck up, die”
Calendar pingin like it want respect
I swipe that shit off with disrespect
Boss want work, friends want plans
I want eight more hours and zero demands
World keep spinnin, cool, let it spin
I ain’t clockin in till I feel human again
Y’all got sunshine, I got rage and covers
If mornings a club, I ain’t fuckin with it, brothers
They say, “seize the day,” yeah that’s cute as hell
I’m seizing this pillow like a hostage cell
Dreams got sequels, I’m hittin replay
Reality’s trash, I’ll come back someday
[Chorus]
I’m the Morning Monster, certified menace
Wake me too early, I’m endin your sentence
j DUDs, king of the “five more minutes” throne
If sleep’s a drug, I’m never alone
I’m the Morning Monster, don’t need your wonder
Still knocked the fuck out, deep in the slumber
