Luce

Well I wake up to a sky so blue
With my girlfriend in the other room
Got the coffee on and the pancakes done
I can't sleep I'm outside in the sun

The tv sings its morning blues
And it's all the same with all the news
But she walks up, smiles and kisses me
And says your coffee's done.

And starts singing.
Yeah yeah yeah
She is singing.

Well it's a pretty good day.
I'm lookin' forward to tomorrow
We'll have a pretty good day.
Yeah yeah yeah

Well it's a pretty good day
I'm looking forward to tomorrow
We'll have a pretty good day
Yeah we'll have a good day.

So I lace my boots up and step outside
Catch a cab because my car died
And I go to work with my friend Dan
Paintin' houses the best we can

On my way back home I try and mix it up
Walk halfway then take a bus
And as it pulls up and the doors open
I hear the bus driver say step up please

Step up. And I'm singing
Yeah yeah yeah
And I'm singing yeah yeah yeah yeah
Some guy looks over and says 'how ya doin'?'

I say Well it's a pretty good day
I'm looking forward to tomorrow
I'll have a pretty good day
Yeah yeah yeah

Well it's a pretty good day
I'm looking forward to tomorrow
I'll have a pretty good day
Yeah I'll have a good day

And through the window
There's a whole world
And I'm watching all the people
All the faces and the places I have yet to go

And the sunshine now it's fading
And my girlfriend she's waiting
And I bet that she's outside
Sleeping in the shade

Cause it's a pretty good day
I'm looking forward to tomorrow
I'll have a pretty good day
Yeah yeah yeah

Well it's a pretty good day
I'm looking forward to tomorrow
I'll have a pretty good day
Yeah, I'll have a good day

It's a good day
Yeah yeah
It's a good day

Houston? Come in guys...My friends we're ok! Rockets launched and we're floating out in space

Its been a long day but we got away, we really got away and the truth is that we're not coming back

We get to wear these butterfly shoes and I don't get the blues from what I was...from what I was...

Cause its a Long Way Down to where we don't belong And what I got I want to give away Yeah its a long way down to where we don't belong and what I've got I want to give away

Houston...are you there? My friends we're not scared We got lots of room, room to move around And we're gonna try to back this thing up to get a view of the planet earth I hear its really blue

And its a Long Way Down to where we don't belong And what I got I want to give away Yeah its a long way down to where we don't belong and what I've got I want to give away

Houston? Anyone..? Answer if you're there Our view of earth has finally disappeared And it was a great thing to see our planet out there in the distance Togetherness at last...togetherness at last

And its a Long Way Down to where we don't belong And what I got I want to give away Yeah its a long way down to where we don't belong and what I've got I want to give away

It's a good day
Yeah yeah
It's a good day

All the air that we breathe
Enters you but enters me deeper
That big boat on which you float
Does it in the shallowest of water

Well you lie down, sit, and you stay
I'm telling you there's a better way
If you open up your big mouth
You could let it, let it out

Wonder where you are
I do!
Dropped into something
I do wonder where you are
Am I coming through?

Well you can't hide much longer inside
So get out of whatever it is you're into
Or is the damage worse than I feared
You wishing you could just disappear
If you open up your big head
You could let somebody in

Wonder where you are
I do!
Dropped into something
I do wonder where you are
Am I coming through?

And I thought that you were okay
We got high the other day
But your head was numb,
You're not the only one

Wonder where you are
I do!
Dropped into something
I do wonder where you are

Karen blows the smoke across
The table to the seat I'm in
And blood is passed around in glasses
"Vintage year", she says again
She says again

As I sit here choking on my food
Like words we've swallowed deep inside
Well, there's a polka dotted dog
Who keeps barking as the cars go by
Barkin' as the cars go by

And it's that stupid dog's tail
That I see us chase
But she can't see it on my face

'Cause I'm home in this electric chair
'Cause I'm home in this electric chair
'Cause I'm home in this electric chair
Well, I'm home

So we watch the clock tic quietly
As it syncs itself to our heartbeats
And then Karen stands up with her glass
And another toast to everyone she cares about
Everyone she cares about

And I'm really turned off
By the fact she cares
But she doesn't understand

That I'm home in this electric chair
That I'm home in this electric chair
That I'm home in this electric chair
That I'm home

So we sit down as I kiss her goodnight
And she straps my buckles all down tight
Upon my cheek she lays a kiss
Then she plugs me in and throws the switch

In my electric chair
In my electric chair
'Cause in my electric chair I'm home
Yeah, I'm home, yeah, well, I'm home
Yeah, well, I'm home
Yeah

It was a dark, depressing party 'til she came into the room
She wore a neon-colored vinyl skirt that brightened up my view
There was a mutual attraction of a woman and a man
But it was me who had the growing situation on his hands

So I just stood there in the middle there
Yeah ooh yeah

She moved a little closer
I felt my blood begin to rise
I saw that she was coming over by that look inside her eyes

So I just stood there in the middle there
Yeah ooh
I just stood there in the middle there

Chorus
I just stood there in the middle
Wondering where I should put my hands
To cover up the rising thoughts of times to come ' my future plans
And all the while she stood there staring, bearing down on everything
While I just stood there wondering what she could see

Now what's the mess'

So I cursed at Mother Nature for making me look like such a jerk
I thought of sticks and bricks and pushing pins but nothing seemed to work
And then with the prettiest of smiles she walked up and said hello
And then I watched her as her eyes gazed down on me below

So I just stood there in the middle there
Yeah ooh
I just stood there in the middle there

Chorus

One' Two' Three

2 x Chorus

Well I stood there in the middle there
Yeah I've stood there in the middle there
Yeah I've stood there in the middle there
Yeah I've stood there in the middle there'

I've covered myself
Forgave all my sins
Jump in the pool
And float around, around the deep end

Like I'm up on a wire, without a net
But I'm without a circus, without a tent

I want you to understand
That I'm just saving myself
I'm blooming like daffodils
On the sunniest of weekends
On the sunniest of weekends

I've resurrected myself
Back from the dead
Fountain of youth sprang
Oh, I sprung again

I'm my own hero in a superman suit
That I wear with my brand new pair, brand new pair of converse shoes

Everyone understands
That I'm just shedding my skin
Blooming like daffodils
On the sunniest of weekends
On the sunniest of weekends

Standing on the surface of the sun
Well I reach out my hands
For you to come
Flying all around us
With heaven dust above
I'm looking off to say
I've resurrected myself

What I now reap is all that I've sown
Pull out the weeds
Stand back and I watch myself grow
Higher and higher
Into the sky
Into my own galaxy
Where I reach the sacred site

Everyone understands
Yeah-ah, we're all saving ourselves
Blooming like daffodils
On the sunniest of weekends
On the sunniest of weekends
Ye-e-ah-ah Ye-e-ah-ah Ye-e-ah-ah
Sunniest of weekends
Ye-e-ah-ah Ye-e-ah-ah Ye-e-ah-ah
Sunniest of Weekends

The blue blue bluest skies
Are heading my way
My finest days in life
Are coming to stay

Cause after tomorrow
I'm no longer for sale
Cause after tomorrow
I'm keeping myself

I hang my laundry out
To dry in the sun
And I take my suitcase down
And fill it with stuff

Cause after tomorrow
I'm no longer for sale
I'll give back the sorrow
But i'm keeping myself
I'll give back the sorrow
But i'm keeping myself

My last blank notebook page
Is up on my empty wall
Where I write my story down
Then I turn and walk out

It says after tomorrow
I'm no longer for sale
I'll give back the sorrow
But i'm keeping myself

Cause after tomorrow
I'm no longer for sale
I'll give back the sorrow
But i'm keeping myself
