Keep It on the Positive Side Songtext
von Trout Fishing in America

You′ve had a bad day, your first mistake was getting up
You've had a bad, bad day now, broke your favorite coffee cup
Staring at your breakfast, you were already feeling fed up
Nobody′s smiling, no one will look you in the eye
And you're feeling like your good friends
Have gone and left you high and dry
Sometimes it's tough to laugh about it
Tough to keep it on the positive side
And you′re tired, so tired, dog tired, dead tired
Sick and tired of being tied to that ball and chain
You think it couldn′t get worse?
Oh, when you're tired, so tired, flat tired, retired, sick and tired
Well that′s when it starts to rain
That's when it really starts to rain
You′re feeling better, got through the day and you survive
If you can just hang on 'till you get home
You might find some peace and quiet


If your living room was a movie
They′d call it Tornado Meets a Double Wide
And you're tired, so tired, dog tired, dead tired
Sick and tired of being tied to that ball and chain
You think it couldn't worse?
Oh, when you′re tired, so tired, flat tired, retired, sick and tired
Well that′s when it starts to rain.
That's when it really starts to rain
You had an ace up your sleeve, but you wore the wrong shirt
Tricky, sticky details threw you sharp breaking curves
Salt in your coffee, sugar on your eggs, mustard on your new tie
The dog bites instead of begs and it′s been a bad, bad day
But you can't say you didn′t try
As long as you can laugh about it
You can keep it on the positive side
Just keep it on the positive side
You got to keep it on the positive side
