Just Another Day
Whiskey Flowers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I need caffeine
I feel electrostatic
Shot like a cannonball, burning like a flame ′cause

A strange routine
Down the endless tunnel
Up the escalator, plug in my machine, but
I don't care
Even if it sounds so tragic
They give me money if I work at double speed, but

I don′t care
Even if I lost the magic
Stuck in the cycle wash, rinse, repeat, 'cause

It's Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Yeah Yeah

Well everyday
I feel so repastatic
I′m in motion til′ 5:15 until I

Shut it down
Three finger power cycle
Get on the elevator, drop at double speed, 'cause

I don′t care
Even if it sounds so tragic
They give me money if I work at double speed, 'cause

I don′t care
I turn around in circles
Just play the game and root for the team, but

It's Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Yeah Yeah

I won′t complain
That it's all the same
But I'm feeling so strange
I think I′m going insane
I′m stuck in my brain
While I am riding that crazy train
But I'll refrain because it′s
Just Another...
Just Another...
It's Just Another Day

It′s Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Yeah Yeah

It's Just Another Day (Just Another Day yeah yeah)
Just Another Day (Just Another Day)
Just Another Day (Just Another Day)




Yeah Yeah
Woo!
