The Day I Died |
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 |
