[Chorus]
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
Today's my day
Today, today's my day
Today's my day
Today, today's my day
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
[Verse 1]
Yo
The alarm was all that I could hear
I opened up my eyes and the light appeared
I sat up in bed, I scratched my head
Then I put on my glasses so I could see clear
I stood up and I got dressed, went upstairs and I got Break-
Fast. Cinnamon Toast Crunch on blast
Splash goes the milk, 2%, I ain't talkin' about silk
Grab the OJ, went to pour it, glass laughed and it spilt
Shit, if I gotta clean this mess, then go change my shirt
I just barely got dressed
I'm stressed and it's 6:15
I betta hurry up, son
I gotta go, I gotta leave
Cause I gotta get to work on time
7:30 on the dot and I got a 30 minute drive
Leavin' me 45 to eat, brush and put in my eyes (talkin' about my contacts)
That's 15 per task. Great, I got some leeway
I don't have to rush, I'm gonna take my time until
"Oh my god, Felix. What the fuck? Pissed on the floor, yeah, just my luck."
I had to hitch him out, then I had to clean it up
It took a little while, so now I gotta rush
Yeah, I'm all ready and it's 6:55
It's time to leave, time to go, time to ride
I get outside only to realize that once again I gotta pump up my right rear tire
Not to mention, It's cold as fuck
Winter mornings in Vermont? Not that fun
Finally, hopped in my car, boy I knew it
Yup, I need some power steering fluid
I get out to pour this shit in, lock the keys in my car
Dude you've gotta be kidding me, but
Thankfully, I keep a spare in my room
I grabbed it, now it's 7:05 and I gotta zoom
I'm cruisin', tweetin, thinkin' about my boss freakin'
And then I got pulled over for speeding. Fuck!
[Skit 1]
Police officer: You have any idea why I'm pulling you over today, sir?
Jarv: Uhh, I don't know?
Police officer: You were going sixty-five in a forty
Jarv: Uhh, am I gonna get a ticket?
Police officer: What do you think, sir, honestly?
Jarv: Dude, fuck!
[Chorus]
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
[Verse 2]
200 dollars later, I arrived at the shop
My boss lookin' pissed, I told him I got stopped
He handed me a box full of 500 parts
"Gotta ream out these holes. Hurry up, start."
I grabbed the box and I headed for the bridgeport
Easin' my way into repetitive ritual
3 hours went by and I was finishin' up
I counted up the parts and then subtracted the residual
"Hey, sir, you wanna check these parts?"
"Sure, uhh, let me have a look
Uhh, they look good to me. What size reamer you use?"
"Oh, I used 250"
"Uhh, these holes need to be 253"
Fuck!
[Skit 2]
Jarv : Huh, so, I gotta do 'em over again?
Boss: Uh, well, yeah, they gotta get done, so you prolly gotta fuckin' do 'em over again. (Alright, alright, that's cool)
Jarv: Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sir, I'm sorry
[Chorus]
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
[Verse 3]
So far, this day's been giving me mad stress
And now I think it's time for a mental health sesh
Yeah, I know it's cold, wind chill to the bone
But I'm just gonna cruise my loop and head home
My wheels hit the ground and I hear that sound
It's takin' me to the place where I wanna be
Zigzaggin' the center line, feelin' just fine
Headphones on blast, you can't bother me
Downhill, I'm cruisin', Ascutney to Union
Feelin' like I found my bad day resolution
I'm boostin', improvin' the level of my mood
And I'm beast and increasin' momentum and the movement
Until, (rrr) my board stops. Yup, Hit a rock
Must have been a good second 'til I felt my body drop
Smack and I drag, like a good 10 feet
Road rash on my arms and a gash on my knee
Peeps stop to talk. Gawk watch and mock
Looked up from the ground and I saw a cop
Maybe if I was on a bike, it would've been different
But no, I'm on a skateboard, instead I get a ticket
In so much pain, mind powers so drained
That I didn't recognize the dude until I caught his name
I looked at the ticket, wow this dude's wicked
It's the second one he's given me today
Fuck!
[Skit 3]
Jarv: Dude, you're honestly giving me a ticket for skateboarding?
Police Officer: Shouldn't have been in the road. Shouldn't have been in the road, sir
Jarv: Oh, I see, I see where we're at now. I'm sorry, sir, I'm sorry
Police Officer: Have a spectacular day, sir. Move along. (Fuck!)
[Chorus]
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
[Verse 4]
This day's the worst. Startin' to think that I'm cursed
2 tickets, a slam and a shitty day at work
I gotta get home, kick back, relax, rest
Gotta do it again tomorrow, every day is a test
But I'm stressed over that fact today was that wack
I'm feelin' anxious thinkin' about tomorrow, scared to reenact
My OCD makes me overreact
I gotta get my head right, I gotta get back on track
And the nighttime's the right time to write rhymes
I feel the stress lift as I put the pen to the page
Extracting anxiety up out of my mind
I'm stayin' happy. Why? Because today's my day
[Chorus]
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
I am happy, today's my day
Stayin' happy, why? Because today's my day
I am happy, today's my day
I, I am happy, today's my day
I am happy, today's my day
Stayin' happy, why? Because today's my day
