Real Bad Day (Demo)

Barely woke up this morning

Feeling all over sore

BJ was aching in the same damn way when I snuck in the back of the store

Four years, still no record

Are we getting too old?

Asking how the hell are we gonna sell out when we hadn’t even sold

It’s been a real bad day

It ain’t a real bad life

I got a real good feeling

I’m gonna be alright

I’ve started talking to my father

I used to think he was right

That’s I was a woman of a man with a soft right hand

Who never really learned how to fight

But buddy, I can pick em

Though I know I can’t win

So I fought him tooth and nail, never asked for bailout, and I did it with a shit eating grin

That was a real bad day

It ain’t a real bad life

And I got a real good feeling

I’m gonna be alright

I’ve got brothers up in New York

I got brothers down south

I’ve got brothers piling up and they wont spare a truck

Or a spot to put em deep in the ground

Just a bunch of dead white boys

No one sounds the alarm

We don’t look like kin but you can tell the resemblance

By the tattoos coverin’ holes in our arms

I’ve had some real bad days

It ain’t a real bad life

I got a real good feeling

I’m gonna be alright

I’ve got me a woman

She calms my nerves

But I still get scared when she asks about my day or why I’m feeling this hurt

I got blame it on the day job

Brothers and fathers too

But if I lose my cool, I might slip up

And cut her with a “y-o-u”

That’s would be a real bad day

She makes a real good wife

I’ve got a real good feeling

Im gonna be alright

Cause I believe in love

And I believe in human kind

I’ve got a real good feeling

Im gonna be alright
