CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHY THIS ALWAYS RUNS 'SLEEP FOR AWHILE' EVEN WHEN I SET THE CLOCK TO 12:05AM

DECLARE @TIMENOW datetime
SET @TIMENOW = RIGHT(GETDATE(),8)
--SELECT @TIMENOW AS TIMENOW
DECLARE @MIDNIGHT varchar(8) = (SELECT CONVERT(varchar(8),@TIMENOW,114))
--SELECT @MIDNIGHT AS MIDNIGHT
IF @MIDNIGHT BETWEEN '23:59:00' AND '00:59:00'
BEGIN
PRINT 'DO THE WORK'
END
ELSE
BEGIN
PRINT 'SLEEP FOR A WHILE'
END

IF @MIDNIGHT BETWEEN '23:59:00' AND '00:59:00'
change to BETWEEN '00:00' AND '00:59'
