~WHAT A DAY~

~WHAT A DAY~
*words by yours truly to capture the essence of a very bad day......


What a day that will be
when my son gets in my purse
When he looks for some crackers
and he takes out my wallet
He finds the crackers
and he lays my wallet aside
what a day....very bad day that will be!

What a day that will be
When I get to the store
I look in my purse
and I find NO WALLET
I have a checkbook
but I need my driver's license
What a day....very bad day that will be!

What a day that will be
When I turn the car on
I try to drive back home
but Findlay's all FLOODED
I can't go here or there
'cause most of the roads are closed
What a day....very bad day that will be!

What a day that will be
When I finally get back home
I mix up some bread
and give 3 lessons
get paid $40 dollars
and set it on the piano
What a day....very bad day that will be!

What a day that will be
When I bake the French Bread
When I pick up my boys
When we all go back home
When I give one more lesson
and then look for the $40 dollars
I can't find it .....oh-oh-oh where could it be!

What a day that will be
When I look all over
When I call 2 students
To see if it got mixed in their music
I look in the trash
and I look in my purse
I look a-a-all over......it's nowhere!

What a day that will be
When I ask my husband
If he sneaked in the house
and hid it for a joke
I tell him I left the door unlocked
He says, "well maybe it got stolen"!
I am sad.....ve-r-y sad that it's gone!

What a day that will be
When we sit at the table
We eat chili and bread
and cookies and ice cream
Can't enjoy the food at all
am sick to my stomach
I need that $40 dollars to pay my bills!

What a day that will be
When the whole family is lookin'
We look here and we look there
And then Mommy has a thought.....
Sure enough there it is
Tucked away in the flashcards
What a day......VERY GOOD DAY....that will be!

What a day that will be
When this song comes to an end
When I type the last word
and send it on to you
Hope you enjoy this little ditty
That I wrote for you in a jiffy
What a day......VERY GOOD DAY....that will be!
