The Day I Died - Just Jack.mp3

[00:03.416]Drag myself from my bed Around 20 past 6
[00:08.171]Get my kids up make breakfast 1 egg 2 toast 3 weetabix
[00:13.938]And as I sit down I look up
[00:15.947]And your standing in the doorway sun at your back
[00:18.696]in my old brown dressing gown
[00:20.950]Well no one can love you more than I love you now
[00:23.951]but I
[00:24.695]Gotta go running for the bus
[00:27.200]Coat flying and i try not to miss it this time
[00:29.696]But the drivers waiting and that's strange Kids on the top deck
[00:32.689]quiet for a change
[00:35.452]And theres no rain and no roadworks in the Bus lane and all my hurts run away
[00:43.448]And im smiling as I'm punching in
[00:46.197]Chorus
[00:47.687]The day I died was the best day of my life (2x)
[00:58.198]Tell my friends and my kids and my wife
[01:00.953]everything will be alright
[01:04.201]The day I died was the best day of my life
[01:09.452]Now the secretaries they got a smile for me
[01:11.700]and the in tray on my desks almost empty
[01:14.943]I get a memo from executive joe
[01:17.190]saying Rob the gob is getting kicked out
[01:19.944]for embezzling funds from the company account
[01:22.948]and i'd be lying if i said i wasn't chuffed
[01:25.952]cos i always hated rob
[01:28.197]and now they'll probably offer me robs old job
[01:30.938]And in the park at lunch
[01:31.950]
[01:32.948]Theres no whinos on my favorite bench
[01:34.946]none of that drunk chatter none of that pissy stench
[01:36.693]
[01:37.936]and the 20 little pigeons with the gammy leg decide to dine from
[01:40.190]someoneelses sandwich instead
[01:42.451]
[01:43.445]and there's something about the city today
[01:44.942]like all the colours conspire to overwhelm the grey
[01:47.953]and this close to the fire I can feel no cold
[01:49.695]but a rainbow halo around my soul
[01:53.403]Chorus
[01:54.666]The day I died was the best day of my life (2x)
[02:05.408]Tell my friends and my kids and my wife
[02:07.917]everything will be alright
[02:11.158]The day I died was the best day of my life
[02:15.874]So I leave work get to the high street and i miss my bus
[02:19.369]Should i wait for another no I can't be arsed
[02:21.872]I begin to walk and rush hour crowd seem to part
[02:24.627]Like the red sea, and im stopping at the offy
[02:29.134]20 cigerettes and a 6 pack to relax me
[02:30.362]And as I cross back over the street
[02:31.872]I guess i never saw that taxi
[02:36.365]I guess I never saw that taxi
[02:38.879]dodododododododoood!
[02:49.381]Chorus
[03:01.377]The day I died was the best day of my life (2x)
[03:12.373]Tell my friends and my kids and my wife
[03:14.863]everything will be alright
[03:18.384]The day I died was the best day of my life
