Lyrics
Day By 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.
Day by day - look what the papers say
Day by day - look what the papers say
Stranded in the jungle
Trapped inside the tube
(You) hate your next door neighbour
Cos he's got more than you
Going round and round, day by day
On the cirlce line
Round and round
Day by day - it's all work no play
Day by day - it's all work no play
Living for inflation
I know I never win
Just to earn a living
They keep me locked in
Day by day - who cares anyway
Day by day - who cares anyway
I feel like a robot
On the production line
Ain't got no tomorrow
On the circle line
Going round and round, day by day
On the circle line
Round and round
Round and round
Day by day
Day by day
