tom flannery – it has not been a good day lyrics

woke up with a head splitting in twoif i can’t remember
it must be true
reached for my wife and grabbed some air
saw a voodoo doll sitting in my chair
it has not been a good day
not been a good day
another dozen and
some lingerie
it has not been a good day
there’s 100 ways to call a man dumb
and i should know i’ve been called each one
some i ain’t heard before
making it hard to even the score
it has not been a good day
not been a good day
i need a country song
and a good cliché
it has not been a good day
opened my mouth and thus spake
history recorded man’s first mistake
a well married soul is one who knows
it’s best to keep his big mouth closed
it has not been a good day
it has not been a good day
even adam knew what not to say

it has not been a good day
even a big ol’ house has got 4 walls
that can bear down like a summer squall
green gr-ss surrounds a hidden moat
where mosquitoes lurk and piranhas float
it has not been a good day
not been a good day
even a poor boy
has got to pay
it has not been a good day
opened my mouth and thus spake
history recorded man’s first mistake
a well married soul is one who knows
it’s best to keep his big mouth closed
it has not been a good day
it has not been a good day
even adam knew what not to say
it has not been a good day
tonight when i finally reach my bed
gonna find a punching bag instead
take that pillow and scream until
i learn to break another’s will
it has not been a good day
not been a good day
head where my feet used to lay
it has not been a good day
