The Day I Died lyrics
Drag myself from my bed
Around 20 past 6 Get my kids up make breakfast 1 egg 2 toast 3 weetabix And as I sit down I look up And your standing in the doorway sun at your back In my old brown dressing gown Well no one could love you more than I love you now, but I Gotta go running for the bus Coat flying and I'm trying not to miss it this time But the drivers waiting and that's strange Kids on the top deck quiet for a change And there's no rain and no roadworks In the bus lane and all my hurts run away And I'm smiling as I'm punching in The day I died was the best day of my life The day I died was the best day of my life Tell my friends and my kids and my wife Everything will be alright The day I died was the best day of my life Secretaries they got a smile for me And the intray on my desks almost empty I get a memo from executive Joe Saying Rob the gob is getting kicked out For embezzling funds from the company account And I'd be lying if I said I wasn't chuffed Cos I always hated rob And now they'll probably offer me robs old job And in the park at lunch There's no whinos on my favorite bench None of that drunk chatter none of that greasy stench And the scrawny little pigeons with the gammy legs Decide to dive bomb someone elses sandwich instead And there's something about the city today Like all the colours conspire to overwhelm the grey And this close to the fire I can feel no cold With a rainbow halo around my soul The day I died was the best day of my life The day I died was the best day of my life Tell my friends and my kids and my wife Everything will be alright The day I died was the best day of my life So I leave work get to the high street and I miss my bus Should I wait for another no I can't be arsed I begin to walk And rush hour crowd seem to part like the red sea And I'm stopping at the offy 20 cigarettes and a 6 pack to relax me And as I cross back over the street I guess I never saw that taxi The day I died was the best day of my life The day I died was the best day of my life Tell my friends and my kids and my wife Everything will be alright The day I died was the best day of my life
