Four hours in the pot, one hour out 
It grows and I sleep standing up 
When Iris sleeps over 
What a book she'll write 
Oh last night 
Oh come on, nobody wants that 
Sister, sister, oh
We tried hour by hour 
Hour by hour 
Hour by hour 
  
Four hours to daylight, four hours and then 
Pour water on me til I live again 
When Iris sleeps over 
It'll be alright 
All last night 
But come on, nobody wants that 
Sister, sister, oh
We tried hour by hour 
Hour by hour 
Hour by hour

    A Send at least one thoughtful letter, my heart goes out to you
    B In the days when you were hopelessly poor, I just liked you more
    C Yes, we may be hidden by rags, but we've something they'll never have
    D Why pamper life's complexity, when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?
