Why Oh Why
got work to do
feel like i have the flu
but got to go in anyway
cant find my keys
about to sneeze
at home i wish i could stay
the wind is frosty
just spilled my coffee
this is starting out to be a bad day
i cough and it hurts
defrost dont work
and why dont my radio play
man! i got a flat
and changing it hurt my back
but at least i can be on my way
and now the car wont crank
whew ! there's no gas in the tank
life is a funny game that we play
trying not to cuss
as i chase down the bus
when i ran into a kid with a sleigh
now i'm late for work
and everything hurts
but i have to act as if everthings ok
now im really tired
say what! im fired
and i cant even get hazzard pay
well those are the breaks
i gotta keep my faith
so all i can do now is pray
