I got worries by the ton Gettin' cancer's only one Overtaxed and alimonied Tired of eatin' fried baloney I got burdens on my shoulders Dying young or growin' older There's some brain cells I'm missin' But despite it all, I'd like to say I'm gonna have a good day today Gonna have a good time anyway Put it all behind me, lay it all away Gonna be a good day today Bills and pills and former wives Past mistakes and former lives Bank account is overdrawn Out of Prozac, hairline's gone Hearing voices in my head Say I should've stayed in bed Dog just died, but what the heck Nothing worse can happen anyway So, I'm gonna have a good day today Me, I'm gonna have a good time anyway Put it all behind me, lay it all away Gonna be a good day today Pulled my back and wrecked my car Girlfriend stole my V-C-R Letter came from Sixty Minutes Say they wanna put me in it Tell me my career just died Years ago I might've cried Now I'm just too old to do it May be true, but screw it anyway Me, I'm gonna have a good day today And I'm gonna have a good time anyway Put it all behind me, lay it all away Gonna be a good day today Hey, I'm gonna have a good day today Me, I'm gonna have a good time anyway Put it all behind me, lay it all away Gonna be a good day today
