Optimistic beyond believe, and pessimistic over the top. This is, who and what I am. 樂觀的無可救藥,悲觀的無以附加。這,就是我。

The day I died
最近愛上Just Jack的音樂,Jack Johnson般的調調雜著濃濃英國倫敦腔。那名號總讓我想到Will & Grace。
ICRT狂播他的 The day I died.
一開始以為我聽錯了。廣播永遠開著當背景音樂,很少注意歌詞內容是什麼。直到這個週末,靜下心來。
The Day I Died - Just Jack
Drag myself from my bed Around 20 past 6
Get my kids up make breakfast 1 egg 2 toast 3 weetabix
And as I sit down I look up
And your standing in the doorway sun at your back
in my old brown dressing gown
Well no one can love you more than I love you now
but I
Gotta go running for the bus
Coat flying and i try not to miss it this time
But the drivers waiting and that's strange
Kids on the top deck quiet for a change
And theres no rain and no roadworks in the
Bus lane and all my hurts run away
And im smiling as I'm punching in
(Chorus)
The day I died was the best day of my life (2x)
Tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
The day I died was the best day of my life
Now the secretaries they got a smile for me
and the in tray on my desks almost empty
I get a memo from executive joe
saying Rob the gob is getting kicked out
for embezzling funds from the company account
and i'd be lying if i said i wasn't chuffed
cos i always hated rob
and now they'll probably offer me robs old job
And in the park at lunch
Theres no whinos on my favorite bench
none of that drunk chatter none of that pissy stench
and the scrawney little pigeons with the gammy leg
decide to dine from someone elses sandwich instead
and there's something about the city today
like all the colours conspire to overwhelm the grey
and this close to the fire I can feel no cold
but a rainbow halo around my soul
(Chorus)
The day I died was the best day of my life (2x)
Tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
The day I died was the best day of my life
So I leave work get to the high street and i miss my bus
Should i wait for another no I can't be arsed
I begin to walk and rush hour crowd seem to part
Like the red sea, and im stopping at the offy
20 cigerettes and a 6 pack to relax me
And as I cross back over the street
I guess i never saw that taxi
dodododododododoood!
(Chorus)
The day I died was the best day of my life (2x)
Tell my friends and my kids and my wife
everything will be alright
The day I died was the best day of my life
