Lyrics
Good Day
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So you don't want to hear about my good song
And you don't want to hear about how I am getting on
With all the shit 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 is 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 dont 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 to 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 is 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
Hey, it's been a lovely day
Everything is going my way
I had so much fun today
And I'm on fire
God, it's been a lovely day
Everything is going my way
Ever since you went away
And I'm on fire
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
So you don't want to hear about my good day
