Well, I'm dressed up so nice
An' I'm doin' my best
Yes I'm startin' over..

Startin' over in another place

Lemme tell you a story

Big chief with a golden crown
He's got rings on his finger
And then he walks up, up to the throne


He's makin' shapes with his hands
An' don't choo dare sit down

Now don't choo dare jump back
And don't choo dare stick out!


And on the first day, we had everything we could hold
Ooh and then we let if all
And on the second day, there was nothing else left to do

Ooh what a day that was.

There are 50,000 beggars

Roaming in the streets
They have lost all their possessions
They have nothing left to eat


Down come a bolt of lightning
Now an electrical storm

Starts a chain reaction
Go pull a fire alarm


I'm dreaming of a city
It was my own invention
And I put the wheels in motion

A time for big decisions

And on the first day, we had everything we could hold

Ooh and then we let if all
And on the second day, there was nothing else left to do
Ooh what a day that was.


Oh a day that was
Ooh that's the way it goes

There's a million ways- to get things done
Three's a million ways- to make things work out.


Well I'm going right trough
And the light came down
Well they're roundin' 'em up

from all over town

They're movin' forward and back

They're movin' backwards and front
And they're enjoying themselves
Moving in ev'ry direction


So if you feel like you're in a whirlpool
You feel like going home

And if you feel like talking to someone
Who know the difference between right and wrong


And on the first day, we had everything we could hold
Ooh and then we let if all
And on the second day, there was nothing else left to do

Ooh what a day that was.
We're go(in') boom boom boom That's the way we live
And in a great big room and That's the way we live.
