CHEAP TRICK - A Day In The Life lyrics

rate me

I read the news today, oh boy<br />

About a lucky man who made the grade<br />

And though the news was rather sad<br />

Well, I just had to laugh<br />

I saw the photograph<br />

<br />

He blew his mind out in a car<br />

He didn't notice that the lights had changed<br />

A crowd of people stood and stared<br />

They'd seen his face before<br />

Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords<br />

<br />

I saw a film today, oh boy<br />

The English army had just won the war<br />

A crowd of people turned away<br />

But I just had to look, having read the book<br />

I'd love to turn you on<br />

<br />

Woke up, got out of bed<br />

Dragged a comb across my head<br />

Found my way downstairs and drank a cup<br />

And looking up, I noticed I was late<br />

<br />

Found my coat and grabbed my hat<br />

Made the bus in seconds flat<br />

Found my way upstairs and had a smoke<br />

And somebody spoke and I went into a dream<br />

Ahh, ahh, ahh<br />

<br />

I read the news today, oh boy<br />

Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire<br />

And though the holes were rather small<br />

They had to count them all<br />

Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall<br />

I'd love to turn you on<br /><br />
