It starts with a broken alarm
The alarm makes no sound
And for a moment you're deaf
And then your senses come around
Shortly after that time,
Your face bears a grin
And here you're ready
For the day to begin.

Wouldn't you know it? Something goes wrong.
A stubbed, bleeding toe- or falling down the stairs.
Broken alarms don't help and neither does blame.
And as you sit alone you only think that no one cares.

Another weekend; Isn't it great?
The sun is shining in the sky
Later today you have to work
So until that time enjoy yourself.
And here we go; work's starting soon
Hurry, run, and go get dressed--
Grab the keys, go crank the car
Drive down the road, without a care

Wouldn't you know it? More things go wrong.
The car runs out of gas, and you're now SOL.
Misleading gages and empty wallets don't help now.
And you only rest your head and wonder why?

Why does this happen to me?
Why is this happening to me?
Who wants to do this to me?
Why is this happening to me?
Who wants to see me suffer?
Who wants to point the blame?
Somebody wants me down and
It's only driving me insane.
