[Verse 1]
I'm looking for an interruption
Do you believe?
You looking to dig my dreams
Be prepared for anything
You come into my little scene
Hooray, hooray, hip-hip, hooray
There's one thing I can guarantee
You won't have to dig, dig too deep

[Chorus]
Said leave me to lay, but touch me deep
I don't sleep, I dream
I'll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

[Verse 2]
Are you looking to drive my dreams?
You here to run my screens?
You come, deliver my demons
Hooray, hooray, hip-hip, hooray
Are you coming to ease my headache?
Do you give good head?
Am I good in bed?

[Chorus]
Said leave me to lay, but touch me deep
I don't sleep, I dream
I'll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

[Verse 3]
I'm looking for an interruption
Can you believe?
Some medicine for my headache
Hooray, hooray, hip-hip, hooray
I'm pitching for a new direction
Pinch me when I wake
Don't tell me my dreams are fake

[Chorus]
Said leave me to lay, but touch me deep
I don't sleep, I dream
I'll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need
Said leave me to lay, but touch me deep
I don't sleep, I dream
I'll settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need

R.E.M.

R.E.M. were an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills, and drummer Bill Berry.

Berry quit the band in April 1997, as they were getting together to record demos for the album Up. He was not replaced on a permanent basis, but the band used an assortment of drummers in his place.
