Another Day

(Verse)
Hey everybody won't you gather around
There's a lot of funky things that are going down
They say everybody's got their crosses to bear
I've got mine right over there

Wheels keep spinning but I'm making no ground
I heard someone smile so I turned around
Arriving home late as I step through the door
Everyone was laying out on the floor

(Chorus)
I'm waiting for night to come
So I can just come undone
I sit and I wonder why
Sunshine can make me cry

My smile hides the hurt inside
It's just my foolish pride
The pain cuts me like a knife
Just another day... in my life

(Verse)
I grab a can of dinner and I head for the car
"Listen", said Pink, "Have a cigar"
Cigar was really good now I'm in the mood
Tried to dial a number but the phone was rude

Back at the house all the lights were on
I jump through the window, everyone was gone
So I cleared a path down to the local bar
Tried the phone again, it was still bizarre

(Chorus)
I'm waiting for night to come
So I can just come undone
I sit and I wonder why
Sunshine can make me cry

My smile hides the hurt inside
It's just my foolish pride
The pain cuts me like a knife
Just another day... in my life

(Solo)

(Verse)
Back on the road had the pedal to the floor
Cigar was in the ashtray so I had some more
Radio was playing some old Beatle's song
I drove a little faster as I sang along

Back at the house it was quarter til four
Everyone was back, laying on the floor
Nobody was looking so I shouted, "Hey!"
Before they even knew it I was on my way

(Chorus)
I'm waiting for night to come
So I can just come undone
I sit and I wonder why
Sunshine can make me cry

My smile hides the hurt inside
It's just my foolish pride
The pain cuts me like a knife
Just another day... in my life
