The day I died(:

September 12, 2009

The day I died-Just Jack
Drag myself from my bed
Around 20 past 6
Get my kids up make breakfast
1 egg 2 toast 3 weetabix

And as I sit down i look up
and your standing in the doorway sun at your back
in my old brown dressing gown
Well no one can love you more than I love you now, but I

Gotta go running for the bus
Coat flying and i try not to miss it this time
but the drivers waiting and thats strange
kids on the top deck quiet for a change
and theres no rain and no roadworks
in the bus lane and all my hurts run away
and Im smiling as Im punching in

the day I died was the best day of my life
the day I died was the best day of my life
tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
the day I died was the best day of my life

Now the secretaries they got a smile for me
and the intray on my desks almost empty
I get a memo from executive Joe
saying Rob the gob is getting kicked out
for embezzling funds from the company account
and Id be lying if I said I wasn’t chuffed
cos I always hated rob
and now they’ll probably offer me robs old job

And in the park at lunch
theres no whinos on my favorite bench
none of that drunk chatter none of that pissy stench
and the scrawny little pigeons with the gammy legs
decide to dive bomb from someone elses sandwich instead
and theres something about the city today
like all the colors conspire to overwhelm the grey
and this close to the fire I can feel no cold
but a rainbow halo around my soul

the day I died was the best day of my life
the day I died was the best day of my life
tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
the day I died was the best day of my life

so I leave work get to the high street and I miss my bus
should I wait for another no I cant be arsed
begin to walk
and rush hour crowd seem to part like the red sea
and Im stopping at the offy
20 cigarettes and a 6 pack to relax me
and as I cross back over the street
I guess I never saw that taxi
I guess I never saw that taxi

the day I died was the best day of my life
the day I died was the best day of my life
tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
the day I died was the best day of my life


Smile-Uncle Kracker

You’re better then the best
I’m lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler then the flip side of my pillow, that’s right
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me,
Lets me know that it’s ok, yeah it’s ok
And the moments where my good times start to fade

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Even when you’re gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower poking the sidewalk crack and just like that
You steal away the rain and just like that

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Don’t know how I lived without you
Cuz everytime that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Having my handy radio as company when making study notes, ain’t that bad!
Now, I’m in love with these and their lyrics(: And smile by Uncle Kracker sort of summed up my whole September holidays. Though most of the time I was with those much dreaded books, but I had my own share of fun and smiles(:
The day I died by Just Jack, reminded me of my grandpa. Sometimes, I wish I could go visit him, give him a hug, tell him how’s school for me, ask him how he is; just like in the past(: Tomorrow’s grandparent’s day, so Happy Grandparent’s Day, ah ma, ye ye, po po, gong gong!
Oh, got a new phone so all’s cool.
