    Story Behind the Song
    This song happened by accident. I was playing with a melody and thought I was going to write a love song. When the last line of the chorus popped in though, the song took a whole new direction. The song took about 30 minutes to write and no more than 4 hours to record and mix. I listen to it when ever I need to tell myself to lighten up.

    Lyrics
    Chorus:
    Have you ever had a day in your lifetime,
    when everything you did turned out right.
    where no matter what you do, you just can't lose.
    Well, brother, neither have I.

    1. When I got up this morning, I couldn't find my shoes.
    I ate burnt toast for breakfast
    and listened to the morning news.

    2. I wandered down to the office,
    strapped on the shackles and chains.
    I worked like a dog all morning,
    but the boss chewed me out just the same.

    3. I came home to a frozen dinner,
    watched some wrestling on TV.
    And I pondered the age old question,
    who the hell would want to be me.

    4. When I die and go to heaven,
    my tombstone is gonna read,
    with hard work and perseverence,
    you could end up here just like me.
