"Good Day"


So you don't want to hear about my good song
You don't want to hear about how I am getting on
With all the things that I can get done
The sun is in the sky and I am by my lonesome
So you don't want to hear about my good day
You have better things to do than to hear me say

God it's been a lovely day
Everything's going my way
I took out the trash today
And I'm on fire...

So you don't want to hear about my good friends
You don't have the guts to take the truth or consequence
Success is in the eye of the beholder
And it's looking even better over your cold shoulder

I'm not suggesting
You get and line me up for questioning
But Jesus think
About the bridges you are burning and I'm betting
That even though you knew it from the start
You'd rather be a bitch than be an ordinary broken heart

So go ahead and talk about your bad day
I want all the details of the pain and misery
That you are inflicting on the others
I consider them my sisters and I want their numbers

God it's been a lovely day
Everything's going my way
I took up croquet today
And I'm on fire

I picked up the pieces of my broken ego
I have finally made my peace as far as you and me go
But I'd love to have you up to see the place
I'd like to do more than survive
I'd like to rub it in your face, ha !

Hey it's been a lovely day
Everything's going my way
I had so much fun today
And I'm on fire

God it's been a lovely day
Everything's going my way
Ever since you went away
And I'm on fire

I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on

I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on

So you don't want to hear about my good day
