Lyrics
Another Stupid Day
Music by Michael Salas, Lyrics by Michael Cano
Copyright 2007 BMI Administered by Bug Music
Staring at the phone, trying to make it ring
Strangling a bird, trying to make it sing
Standing in the shower, think I lost the soap
Hang me from the rafters, think I lost the rope
CHORUS:
It's a day today
Another stupid day
Make it stop, make it stop, make it go away
Toss it in the freezer, throw it in the sink
Go ahead take my eyes, I won't even blink
Wanted to give you a call, didn't have a dime
Waited for a nickel, ran out of time
Lost my way in Vegas, guess I'm out of luck
Bought a piece of liver, wasn't worth a fuck
CHORUS
Gazing at the ceiling, fell down on the floor
Tried to see the sunset, ran into the door
Make myself some breakfast, couldn't crack an egg
Tried my hand at acting, couldn't break a leg
CHORUS
