Just an out of tune song for an out of tune day
I got home from work and Im not good for anything
I guess Ill have a beer and play it anyway
Just an ordinary guy with a tangled up life
And dreams and emotions that take me by surprise
I dont know why my life hits me right between the eyes
(chorus)
Needless to say, its been another pointless day
But I thought Id call you up and let you know
Theres nothing on my mind but an out of tune song...

Im an amoebas grandson in a pair of blue jeans
If the world is a stage I must have got lost between scenes
I read the script but Ive forgotten what it means
So I sit on my porch with a beat-up guitar
And I watch the girls as they wander past my yard
If they could see me barbeque I know Id be a star

Chorus

Please dont get me wrong
Im in no mood to complain
I can still feel the sun on my face
Standing in the rain

Just an out of tune song that I should forget
From one of those days when its safer just to quit
Madmen and fools love to dig a bigger pit
So I sit on my porch and I howl at the moon
Ive got this aching feeling that its ending much too soon
If I could just get this song in tune

Chorus
