Talking Optimist Blues lyrics
I got worries by the ton;
getting' cancer's only one.
Overtaxed and alimonied,
tired of eatin' fried baloney.
I got burdens on my shoulders,
dying young or growin' older.
There's some brain cells I'm missin',
but despite it all,
I'd like to say
I'm gonna gave a
good day today.
Gonna have a good time anyway.
Put it all behind me,
lay it all away.
Gonna be a good day today.
Bills and pills and former wives,
past mistakes and former lives.
Bank account is overdrawn,
out of Prozac, hairline's gone.
Hearing voices in my head;
say I should've stayed in bed.
Dog just died, but what the heck;
Nothing worse can happen anyway.
So I'm gonna have a good day today.
Me, I'm gonna have a good time anyway.
Put it all behind me,
lay it all away.
Gonna be a good day today.
Pulled my back and wrecked my car.
Girlfriend stole my V.C.R.
Letter came from Sixty Minutes;
say they wanna put me in it.
Tell me my career just died.
Years ago I might've cried.
Now I'm just to old to do it.
May be true, but screw it anyway.
Me, I'm gonna have a good day today.
And I'm gonna have a good time anyway.
Put it all behind me,
lay it all away.
Gonna be a good day today.
Hey, I'm gonna have a good day today.
Me, I'm gonna have a good time anyway.
Put it all behind me,
lay it all away.
Gonna be a good day today.
getting' cancer's only one.
Overtaxed and alimonied,
tired of eatin' fried baloney.
I got burdens on my shoulders,
dying young or growin' older.
There's some brain cells I'm missin',
but despite it all,
I'd like to say
I'm gonna gave a
good day today.
Gonna have a good time anyway.
Put it all behind me,
lay it all away.
Gonna be a good day today.
Bills and pills and former wives,
past mistakes and former lives.
Bank account is overdrawn,
out of Prozac, hairline's gone.
Hearing voices in my head;
say I should've stayed in bed.
Dog just died, but what the heck;
Nothing worse can happen anyway.
So I'm gonna have a good day today.
Me, I'm gonna have a good time anyway.
Put it all behind me,
lay it all away.
Gonna be a good day today.
Pulled my back and wrecked my car.
Girlfriend stole my V.C.R.
Letter came from Sixty Minutes;
say they wanna put me in it.
Tell me my career just died.
Years ago I might've cried.
Now I'm just to old to do it.
May be true, but screw it anyway.
Me, I'm gonna have a good day today.
And I'm gonna have a good time anyway.
Put it all behind me,
lay it all away.
Gonna be a good day today.
Hey, I'm gonna have a good day today.
Me, I'm gonna have a good time anyway.
Put it all behind me,
lay it all away.
Gonna be a good day today.
