Dresden Dolls – Good Day lyrics

So you don't want to hear about my good song?
And you don't want to hear about how I am getting on
With all the things that I can get done
The sun is in the sky and I am by my lonesome
So you don't want to hear about my good day?
You have better things to do than to hear me say

God, it's been a lovely day!
Everything is going my way
I took out the trash today
And I'm on fire

So you don't want to hear about my good friends?
You don't have the guts to take the truth or consequence
Success is in the eye of the beholder
And it's looking even better over your cold shoulder

I'm not suggesting you up and line me up for questioning
But jesus think about the bridges you are burning
And I'm betting
That even though you knew it from the start
You'd rather be a bitch than be an ordinary broken heart

So go ahead and talk about your bad day
I want all the details of the pain and misery
That you are inflicting on the others
I consider them my sisters and I'd like their numbers

God, it's been a lovely day!
Everything is going my way
I took up croquet today
And I'm on fire

I picked up the pieces of my broken ego
I have finally made my peace as far as you and me go
But I'd love to have you up to see the place
I'd like to do more than survive
I'd like to rub it in your face!

Hey! It's been a lovely day!
Everything is going my way
I had so much fun today
And I'm on fire
God, it's been a lovely day!
Everything's been going my way
Ever since you went away
Hey I'm on fire!
I'm on fire!
I'm on fire!
So you don't want to hear about my good day?

{Now the war's over
Mussolini's dead
He wants to go to Heaven
With a crown upon his head.
The Lord says "No,
He's got to stay below"
All dressed up
And no where to go}
