Alas,
Broke my alarm waking up
No cream for my coffee
None of my breakfast was there this morn
No clean underwear in the drawer so I go without
Wiping sleep from my eyes I scratch a retina
One of my shoes chewed up by a dog
Dressed for rain but it was actually snow
Left my wallet at home on the table
When I exit the kitchen my toe meets the corner
Gas tank in the car barely above E
My favorite book now has a coffee stain on it
All the songs on the radio are lame
Gave myself a paper cut
And scratched my glasses
Think I am coming down with something but
Today will be a great day
