I slept through the night, I got through to the dawn    I flipped a switch and the light went on    I got out of bed and I put some clothes on    It's a pretty good day so far    I turned the tap, there was cold there was hot    I put on my coat to go to the shop    I stepped outside, and I didn't get shot    It's a pretty good day so far    I didn't hear any sirens or explosions    No murders coming in form those heavy guns    No UN tanks, I didn't see one    It's a pretty good day so far    No snipers in windows, taking a peak    No people panic, running scared through the streets    I didn't see any bodies without arms, legs, or feet    It's a pretty good day    There was plasma bandages and electricity    Food, wood, and water; and the air was smoke free    No camera crews from my TV    It was all such a strange sight to be home    Nobody was frightened, wounded, hungry, or cold    And the children seemed normal, they didn't look old    It's a pretty good day so far    I walked through a park, you would not believe it    There in the park, there were a few trees left    And on some branches, there were a few leaves    I slept through the night, got through to the dawn    I flipped the switch and the light went on    I wrote down my dream, I wrote this song    It's a pretty good day so far
