EVERYDAY, ANOTHER DAY Lyrics

HE COMES HOME EACH DAY, AT A QUARTER TO SIX WHEN HIS LOVELY WIFE, GOT HIS DINNER FIXED THEN HE READS THE PAPER, DRINKS A BOTTLE OF BEER WHEN HIS KIDS TELL STORIES HE DON'T SEEM TO HEAR THAN THE T.V. SWITCHED ON, FOR THE NINE 'O CLOCK NEWS THE ROOM GETS SMELLY, 'CAUSE HE PUT OUT HIS SHOES ELEVEN 'O CLOCK AND HE BRUSHES HIS TEETH A 5 MINUTE ROMANCE BEFORE HE FELLS ASLEEP IS THIS WHAT HE WANTS 3X EVERYDAY, ANOTHER DAY OF HIS LIFE SHE GETS UP AT SEVEN THEN WAKES UP THE KIDS SHE GOES TO THE KITCHEN, MAKING BREAKFAST AND TEA SHE 'S GOT HIS LUNCHBOX READY, "DARLING HAVE A NICE DAY" SHE STANDS BEHIND THE WINDOW WHEN HE DRIVES AWAY THE KIDS TO SCHOOL THE WASHING-MACHINE THE SUPERMARKET THE HOUSE IS VACUUM-CLEANED THE KIDS COME HOME AT A QUARTER PAST FOUR WHEN SHE HAS JUST RETURNED FROM HER PART-TIME JOB AT THE STORE IS THIS WHAT SHE WANTS 3X EVERYDAY, ANOTHER DAY OF HER LIFE IT'S A LABOUR LIFE YOU GOT TO WORK EVERYDAY YOU GOT THE RIGHT TO DIE WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND GRAY AND WHEN YOU REALIZE YOUR LIFE PAST AWAY THIS IS NOT WHAT I WANT THE LABOUR LIFE, THE WORK EVERYDAY WHEN I'LL DIE I'LL SIMPLY BE REPLACED WITHOUT A CHOICE WITHOUT A FACE SOMETIMES SHE GETS SUSPICTIOUS, CAUSE HE IS SO OFTEN AWAY A ONE DAY BUSINESS TRIP, AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT HE SAYS WHEN HE COMES HOME SHE TAKES HIS SUITCASE UPSTAIRS HIS SUIT BACK IN THE WARDROBE NO STRANGE PERFUMES IN THE AIR THEN HE ASKS POLITELY: "DARLING HOW HAVE YOU BEEN" SHE SAYS SHE STAYED AT HOME, THE KITCHEN HAD TO BE CLEANED HE THINKS THAT IS STRANGE CAUSE WHEN HE FELT SO ALONE HE TRIED TO CALL HER WHOLE DAY, SHE DIDN'T PICK UP THE PHONE IS THIS WHAT WE WANT 3X EVERYDAY, ANOTHER DAY OF OUR LIVES
