BAD DAY GOOD WEATHER (LYRICS)
Verse 1
Get up in the morning
for some coffee and some bread
hop into the shower
start to wake up from the dead
Discover there is no paper
on the front lawn
get back in the house
say goodbye to the children and wife
driving off to work
Chorus
We watch the news
and they give us good weather
so we can plan our day
we make some tea
as they broadcast commercials
and then they say…
Today a plane crashed into the towers
it’s such a tragic day
We watch the news
about the starving and killing…
as we’re sipping away
Verse 2
Another early morning
another sleepy day
hop into the shower
even though you know it rains
It’s just a day
like any other day
like any other year
say goodbye to the children and your new wife
driving off to work
Chorus
We watch the news
and they give us good weather
so we can plan our day
we make some tea
as they broadcast commercials
and then they say…
Today a wave crashed over the coastline
it’s such a tragic day
We watch the news
about the hurting and crying…
as we’re sipping away
Verse 3
Realize one morning
it’s a brand new day
step out of the shower
know it’s time to pay
Discover there’s no later
in out lifetime
only here and now
Cherishing your children and wife
honoring that vow
Chorus
We watch the news…
and they give us good weather
so we can plan our day
We make some tea
as they broadcast commercials
and then you say…
“We live our lives
as one in a million
every single day
so what’s the point of
us trying to bother
’bout this medial game
