My Best Day

I wake up in the morning try not to wake the wife,
another boring day in my endless boring life,

As silent as I can I put my foot upon the floor,

An hour and 30 minutes till I need to leave the door.

I step into the shower the water hits my back,

The missus doesn’t know that last week I got the sack,
she doesn’t know about the bills sat inside the draw,

I sense her hate for every day just a little more.

I step out of the shower and dry myself with haste,
Today is so important it isn’t one to waste,

She doesn’t know 10 years ago on this day we met,

I’m pretty sure my kids as well would sooner just forget.

I’ll wear my shirt and tie should always look your best,

I shouldn’t wake them up for byes I’m sure they’d rather rest,
I wrote a note I’m sorry see, their better off without,

A useless sod, who’s got no hope, there won’t be any doubt.

I close the door so not to stir my sleeping wife and kids,
Made sure they all had pack up in plastic tubs with lids,
I’m sure the world will better without a man like me,

I check the garage beams last week their stronger than the tree.
