A hundred cups
Of coffee, please
Need it now
I cannot sleep
Cannot stop
I have to move on

Sip by sip
And I'm awake
I am strong
I cannot waste
No more time
All hours are gone

'Cause the deadline, deadline, deadline
Deadline is near
And its red light, red light, red light
Won't disappear
All my life
I've tried to be on time
Tried to be good and wise
To fit all deadlines
Hurry, hurry!

Worked so hard
So hard, that I forgot
A daylight
My only Sun
Shines at my work

At this time
There's no food on my plate
An empty space
I'm alive
On what I do

'Cause the deadline, deadline, deadline
Deadline is near
And its red light, red light, red light
Won't disappear
All my life
I've tried to be on time
Tried to be good and wise
To fit all deadlines
Hurry, hurry!

'Cause the deadline, deadline, deadline
Deadline is near
And its red light, red light, red light
Won't disappear
All my life
I've tried to be on time
Tried to be good and wise
To fit all deadlines
Hurry, hurry!
