A Day In The Life (Second Take)

[Verse 1]
I wake in the dark and I don't complain (Hear now, listen all who can)
I ride to the city on a South West train (A day in the life of a modern man)
The beggars and the bankers, all the buggers I see (Hear now, listen all who can)
I don't trust them and they don't trust me (A day in the life of a modern man)

[Chorus]
Father (Father)
Mother (Mother)
Sister (Sister)
Brother (Brother)
I've been this way since I began
(A day in the life of a modern man, a day in the life of a modern man)

[Verse 2]
Stare all day at a monitor screen (Hear now, listen all who can)
With a Slim-Fast shake in the old canteen (A day in the life of a modern man)
Half past five, "Will you have a few beers?" (Hear now, listen all who can)
"Just a pint of diet coke and I'm off back, cheers" (A day in the life of a modern man)

[Chorus]
Father (Father)
Mother (Mother)
Sister (Sister)
Brother (Brother)
No song I can sing truer than
(A day in the life of a modern man, a day in the life of a modern man)

[Verse 3]
Go home in the dark and I eat my tea (Hey, hear now, listen all who can)
Just the wife and me and the BBC (A day in the life of a modern man)
I might see a film with a couple of the boys (Hear now, listen all who can)
Or gather up the band for to make some noise
(A day in the life of a modern man)

[Chorus]
Father (Father)
Mother (Mother)
Sister (Sister)
Brother (Brother)
From New Orleans to old Japan
(A day in the life of a modern man, a day in the life of a modern man)

[Verse 4]
The birds all sing as I rest my head
With a good sweet girl lying in my bed (A day in the life of a modern man)
I might have troubles and I might give a damn (Hey, hear now, listen all who can)
But I don't forget how lucky I am (A day in the life of a modern man)

[Chorus]
Oh father (Father)
Mother (Mother)
Sister (Sister)
Brother (Brother)
From dawn nightfall, thus it ran
A day in the life of a modern man
Oh, yes
Father (Father)
Mother (Mother)
Sister (Sister)
Brother (Brother)
For Angus, Harold, and for Dan
(A day in the life of a modern man, a day in the life of a modern man)

[Spoken Outro]
Nice, that was really good
Let's just do it a couple more times, argh
Hooray
Everyone have a water break
Take five everyone
Good work guys, good work
