Neil Diamond Talking Optimistic Blues (good Day Today)
I got worries by the ton
Getting cancers's only one
Over Taxed and Alimony
Tired of eating fried baloney
I got burdens on my shoulders
Dying young and growing older
There's some brain cells I'm missing
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, hairlines gone
Hearing voices in my head
Said I should have 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 VCR
Letter came from sixty minutes
Saying they wanna put me in it
Tell 'em my career just died
Years ago I might have cried
Now I'm just too old to do it
Maybe true but screw it anyway
Me' I'm gonna have a good day today
And I'm gonna have a good time anyway
