Must be a lucky breaks day

The soda machine blows up
The customers are crazy
The bus boy is spaced out
And or flat out lazy

The cash register is down
This cook is in a mood
Yeah it's a lucky breaks day
To be serving the food

****
Chorus:
****

It's another day with hot dishes
Glasses and the balancing act
Gettin the side work done
Inbetween the place bein packed

It's another day as a waitress
It's another day at the tables
Another day for the inspiration
Of all the myths legends and fables

****
****

The manager had an argument
Before he left his home
And now he's like a dog
Chewin on some bone

Nobody's leavin tips
Everybody's leavin a mess
It must be a luck breaks day
If one were to hazard a guess

****
Repeat chorus:
****

The dish washer's gettin behind
The phone's ringin off the wall
Some days are longer than others
Some kid is startin to ball

A to go order is lost
It seems to have up and gone
Yeah it's a lucky breaks day
To have the apron on

****
Repeat chorus:
****

Somebody's in a hurry
Somebody can't make up their mind
Some insulated genius is sayin
Good help is hard to find

It's another day as a waitress
It's another day at the tables
Another day for the inspiration
Of all the myths legends and fables

Fade.......

Dedicated of course to all waitress in general
but also those specifically who gave me hope and
helped me survive by slipping me some food
every now and then....angels all.
Seriously..............thank you.

Gossip Gossip Gossip

Gossip gossip gossip
They're not a warlock or a witch
Male or female
A bitch is just a bitch

Did you hear about him
Did you hear about her
What some of us step in
Others like to stir

****
Chorus:
****

Takin that short cut to the top
That quick grab at the glory
When it's not even the ugly truth
But it is the same ol story

****
****

It's not if you climb up
Livin turned around
It's when you get your status
By who you put down

It's the whisper campaign
An inspipid sneak attack
Why do a face to face
When there's always the back

****
Repeat chorus:
****

Takin that short cut to the top
That quick grab at the glory
When it's not even the ugly truth
But it is the same ol story

Gossip gossip gossip
They're not a warlock or a witch
Male or female
A bitch is just a bitch

I'm goin down the road

I'm goin down the road
And I'm feelin pretty bad
And I can't help but wonder
Why you got to make me sad

When I only want to love you
Give you all I can
But you just turn and walk away
And I don't understand

****
Chorus:
****

So
What is it you're tryin to tell me
That you want to be free
Or you don't want me treatin you
Like you been treatin me

****
****

Yeah
I'm goin down the road
And I'm feelin pretty used
But when I try to ask you
You act all confused

When I only want to love you
Give you my best
But you just look back at me
Like hey where's the rest

****
Repeat chorus:
****
