"Good Day Bad" lyrics - MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO

MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO
"Good Day Bad"
(Chris Bruce / Meshell Ndegeocello)

I'm surprised every sunrise
The earth would have me back
Surprised my knees hold me up
That's it not all gone black
And I'm sure by nightfall
I will burn up all I have

[Chorus:]
So don't go out your way
To make a good day bad
So don't go out your way
To make a good day bad

It used to be like this
Like a lover and an afternoon
Used be gold and shadows
Some distant floating tune
She came and went
Guess I should've tried like mad
But I did not lift a finger

[Chorus:]
I turned a good day bad
I turned a good day bad

I am haunted late at night
And no one cares to ask me how I feel
My only friend's my flask
Wish I knew my momma
Wish I could forgive my dad
Should've known better
Wish I had

[Chorus:]
Seen more good than bad
Seen more good than bad
