"Pretty Good Day" lyrics
"Pretty Good Day"
I slept through the night, I got through to the dawn
I flipped a switch and the light went on
I got out of bed, I put some clothes on
It was a pretty good day so far
I turned the tap, there was cold, there was hot
I put on my coat to go to the shop
I stepped outside and I didn't get shot
It's a pretty good day so far
I didn't hear sirens or explosions
No murders coming in from those heavy guns
No UN tanks, I didn't see one
It's a pretty good day so far
No snipers in windows, taking a peak
No people panic, running scared through the streets
I didn't see any bodies without arms, legs, or feet
It's a pretty good day so far
There was plasma and bandages and electricity
Food, wood and water and the air was smoke-free
No camera crews from my TV
Pretty good day so far
It was all such a strange sight to behold
Nobody was frightened, wounded, hungry, or cold
The children seemed normal, they didn't look old
Pretty good day so far
I walked through the park, and you would not believe it
There in the park, there were a few trees left
And on some branches, there were a few leaves
It's a pretty good day so far
I slept through the night, I got through to the dawn
I flipped the switch and the light came on
I wrote down my dream and I made it this song
It's a pretty good day so far

I'm looking outward into the night

The Be Good Tanyas - "It's Not Happening" The way your mind works
Travelling so fast
Carving your way

You figure it out

Cause you're talking to yourself

Calexico - "Goin' To Acapulco" I'm going down to Rose Marie's
She never does me wrong.
She puts it to me plain as day
And gives it to me for a song.
It's a wicked life but what the hell
The stars ain't falling down.
