Every day she takes a morning bath she wets her hair
Wraps a towel around her as she’s heading for the bedroom chair It’s just another day Slipping into stockings, stepping into shoes Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat It’s just another day At the office where the papers grow she takes a break Drinks another coffee and she finds it hard to stay awake It’s just another day Do do do do do do, it’s just another day
Do do do do do do, it’s just another day So sad, so sad
Sometimes she feels so sad Alone in her apartment she’d dwell Till the man of her dreams comes to break the spell Ah, stay, don’t stand her up And he comes and he stays but he leaves the next day So sad Sometimes she feels so sad As she posts another letter to the sound of five
People gather ’round her and she finds it hard to stay alive It’s just another day Do do do do do do, it’s just another day
Do do do do do do, it’s just another day So sad, so sad
Sometimes she feels so sad Alone in her apartment she’d dwell Till the man of her dreams come to break the spell Ah, stay, don’t stand her up And he comes and he stays but he leaves the next day So sad Sometimes she feels so sad Every day she takes a morning bath she wets her hair
Wraps a towel around her as she’s heading for the bedroom chair It’s just another day Slipping into stockings, stepping into shoes Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat It’s just another day Do do do do do do, it’s just another day
Do do do do do do, it’s just another day |
