Just an out of tune song for an out of tune day

I got home from work and i'm not good for anything

I guess i'll have a beer and play it anyway

Just an ordinary guy with a tangled up life

And dreams and emotions that take me by surprise

I don't know why my life hits me right between the eyes

(chorus)

Needless to say, it's been another pointless day

But i thought i'd call you up and let you know

There's nothing on my mind but an out of tune song...



I'm an amoeba's grandson in a pair of blue jeans

If the world is a stage i must have got lost between scenes

I read the script but i've forgotten what it means

So i sit on my porch with a beat-up guitar

And i watch the girls as they wander past my yard

If they could see me barbeque i know i'd be a star



Chorus



Please don't get me wrong

I'm in no mood to complain

I can still feel the sun on my face

Standing in the rain



Just an out of tune song that i should forget

From one of those days when it's safer just to quit

Madmen and fools love to dig a bigger pit

So i sit on my porch and i howl at the moon

I've got this aching feeling that it's ending much too soon

If i could just get this song in tune



Chorus
