Loudon Wainwright III

Pretty Good Day

Lyricist:Loudon Iii Wainwright

I slept through the night, I got through to the dawn
I flipped a switch and the light went on
I got out of bed and I put some clothes on

Twas been a pretty good day so far

I turned the tap, there was cold, there was hot
I put on my coat to go to the shop
I stepped outside and I didn't get shot
Twas a pretty good day so far

I didn't hear any sirens or explosions
No mortars coming in from those heavy guns
No UN tanks - I didn't see one
Twas a pretty good day so far

No snipers in windows taking a peak
No people panicked, running scared through the streets
I didn't see any bodies without arms, legs or feet
Twas a pretty good day so far

There were plasma, bandages and electricity
Food, wood and water and the air was smoke free
No camera crews from my TV

It was all such a strange sight to behold
Nobody was frightened, wounded, hungry or cold
And the children seemed normal, they didn't look old
Pretty good day so far.

I walked through a park, you would not believe it
There in the park, there were a few trees left
And on some branches, there were a few leaves

I slept through the night, I got through to the dawn
I flipped the switch and the light went on
I wrote down my dream, I made up this song

Twas a pretty good day so far.
