Tshirt white tshirt
Fresh and pressed
Crisp and creased
Sneakers black and laced
Prepared for another day
As you thump thump thump
On your way
Chest proud
Head held high
Ready, Come what may
But today will not be a good day
It never is
And still everyday
Day after day
You get up and try again
The good man, the old ol' boy
Man, what a sucker
But it's not like I'm jealous or anything...
Love the sound repetitions in the beginning -- pressed, creased, laced. Some lines seem already implied and thus unneccessary -- "Prepared for another day" and "on your way" "Head held high" and "Day after day" -- exp. since the last three are cliches.
