BHAGAVAD GITA · CHAPTER 18, VERSE 39

Bhagavad Gita 18.39

यदग्रे चानुबन्धे च सुखं मोहनमात्मनः। निद्रालस्यप्रमादोत्थं तत्तामसमुदाहृतम्॥

That happiness which deludes the self both in the beginning and in the end, arising from sleep, indolence, and negligence, is declared to be Tamasic.

Tamasic joy is deceptive, born of slacking off, intoxication, excessive sleep, and avoiding reality.
