: some days are better than some songs :

... hey, MattyB raised the ante on my quick, perplexed post on diamond days. Pulled 2 lines out of a song ( in italics below ) and wanted me to 'name that tune' ... fortunately for me, while HE was only 14 when Zooropa came out, I was old enough to know something about an Irish band, my roots being over there, but in the Ulster part. Anyhow, these lyrics probably are better than John Denver's ... that was just what came to me in the moment, that's all!

Some Days Are Better Than Others : Zooropa : 1993

Some days are dry, some days are leaky
Some days come clean, other days are sneaky
Some days take less, but most days take more
Some slip through your fingers and onto the floor

Some days you're quick, but most days you're speedy
Some days you use more force than is necessary
Some days just drop in on us
Some days are better than others

Some days it all adds up
And what you got is not enough
Some days are better than others

Some days are slippy, other days sloppy
Some days you can't stand the sight of a puppy
Your skin is white but you think you're a brother
Some days are better than others

Some days you wake up with her complaining
Some sunny days you wish it was raining
Some days are sulky, some days have a grin
And some days have bouncers and won't let you in

Some days you hear a voice
Taking you to another place
Some days are better than others

Some days are honest, some days are not
Some days you're thankful for what you've got
Some days you wake up in the army
And some days it's the enemy

Some days are work, most days you're lazy
Some days you feel like a bit of a baby
Lookin' for Jesus and His mother
Some days are better than others

Some days you feel ahead
You're making sense of what she said
Some days are better than others

Some days you hear a voice
Taking you to another place
Some days are better than others
