If It Wasn't for the Bad Days

Before you left the house, you made mad your spouse,
Your good ole car, didn’t get very far,
You missed the bus, with some guy named Gus,
So you were late, and your boss was irate,
But remember;
IF IT WASN’T FOR THE BAD DAYS,
WE WOULDN’T KNOW WE HAD GOOD DAYS!

Your mechanic called, you have to have a major overhaul,
Your spouse sent an email, still giving you “H”, “E” double “L”,
You look at your shirt, the ink stain makes you hurt,
Your friend Nate, can’t make the lunch date,
But remember;
IF IT WASN’T FOR THE BAD DAYS,
WE WOULDN’T KNOW WE HAD GOOD DAYS!

From your chair you arose, only to stub your big toes,
Your son - finally he calls, he is failing college this fall,
Five O’Clock- Yeah! it does come, but (because you were late) you are not done,
THIS bus - you have met, but then there is no place to set,
But remember;
IF IT WASN’T FOR THE BAD DAYS,
WE WOULDN’T KNOW WE HAD GOOD DAYS!

You come home and find your spouse “Randy”, now wasn’t that Dandy?
You two decide, to buy you a new ride,
The polls indicate, that in the lead is your candidate,
Nate gives you a call, together you will watch football,
But remember;
IF IT WASN’T FOR THE GOOD DAYS,
WE WOULDN’T KNOW WE HAD BAD DAYS!
