3:35 or 3:34AM: “25 or 6 to 4”
appeared on Chicago II and was written by organist Robert Lamm.
When asked the meaning of the song,
Lamm said, “It's not mystical. It's about staying up all night writing a song.”
Waiting for the break of day
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky
Giving up, I close my eyes
Sitting cross-legged on the floor
25 or 6 to 4Staring blindly into space
Getting up to splash my face
Wanting just to stay awake
Wondering how much I can take
Should I try to do some more?
25 or 6 to 4Feeling like I ought to sleep
Spinning room is sinking deep
Searching for something to say
Waiting for the break of day
25 or 6 to 4
25 or 6 to 4
