Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Took a walk to a caution scene Guess I crossed the line somehow And if I lost some of your hope I'm sorry for the folly was all mine And I don't ever really understand All the things we say But I try to anyway anyhow For what's in a day of a dandy life For what's in a day of this dandy life Everything everything everything Hangin' on every word My social butterfly Everyone wants to be loved Loved in their own way I can say I spent the night On the telephone inside When you said that every single One of us can find a happy face So why don't you go try Try anyway And I suppose I was born yesterday 'Cause I never thought of things Quite in that way at all and in that way For what's in a day of a dandy life For what's in a day of this dandy life Everything, everything, everything
