It's the opening day the brightest day, houston street signs brand new day
i look up and I expect rainbows.
Oh here it comes a sudden rush laugh oh laugh I'm fit to burst

It's a wonderful day, in my own little way
I'm clean of politicians fn my head
I'm clean of fn tv done fn my head.

Ive got no ambition instead butterflies instead in my head
i guess you must get frustrated... i'd rather walk than get ahead.
catch a falling catch a falling catch a falling star
silver tongues immaculate dress I just can't help they don't impress - me
I know that you think I'm a mess but i'd rather watch the mountain glow
catch a falling catch a falling catch a falling star
watching the grass grow is fine by me, and the paint as it dries, has some mystery - for me.

I got a thousand ways to hate a thousand ways to detest you
but not today but not today
Gonna wash it all away, gonna be so clean for you today
and thats today thats today.
Yesterdays gone and tomorrow's yet to come, we got today we got today
Well your head is bigger than the solomon islands and your heart beats faster at the sound of your own voice... but I don't care I don't care.
Because my Guinness glass is overflowing and the sun is shining and I know where I'm going... I'm happy today happy today
Yesterdays gone and tomorrow's yet to come, we got today we got today
How good how good can it get, I never thought this could happen to me
How good how good can it get, I aint finished yet I got NYC I got you n me you and me I'm sooooooooo happy....
Gonna park my spleen, gonna park my spleen, gonna park my spleen in a plastic bag and never look back.
