That Day Lyrics by Poe

Hello

1995

Tomorrow's coming 'round
A hair-pin curve in the road
She's got a run in her stocking
And she's missing the heel of her shoe

Got up this morning rolled out of bed
I spilled a diet coke
Called my mother said, "Hi"
What I meant to say was, "Why is your life a joke?"

Then, I went down to that ugly bar and
I clicked my heels three times just like you said
And I climbed that road to your empty house
The anticipation was a turn on

But you let me down
'Coz, I stood on that empty street alone
I said, "I'm ready for my close up now, Mr. Demille"
I waited for the light, but it never shone

Well I wonder what you do with that expensive piece of land
That overlooks a billion years of history
I have a sneaking suspicion you will never understand

Hey maybe I'll see you down by the Rocky and Bullwinkle
And we can talk to that charlatan psychic
And she can paint a prettier picture of your future

'Coz that day in my life, that day in my life
I dreamt tomorrow, had a prettier face
I dreamt tomorrow, would have better things to say
Than, "You look like shit, what's your problem, bitch?
Your legs feel like sandpaper, you can't do anything right"

'Coz that day never should have taken place
'Coz this day in my life still cannot explain
Why I listened in the first place to you?
Oh yeah, something else

I hope one day you call up your father
And you have the guts to tell him how he hurt you
And he made you hurt another
'Coz it makes me sad
