I wake up in the morning
Pull the blinds and see the sunshine
And I wonder if this Monday
Will wipe the rain of yesterday

Le'ts go fishin' down the river
Let's go fly a kite on Primrose Hill
Take advantage of the sunshine
There's no tellin' when the rain comes in

I feel good, I feel fine
Kicked the flu last week
Now I'm alright

Come and meet me on the corner
Or just pick me up and we can drive
Round the city, feelin' pretty
Blast the music on the radio

I feel like walkin', or maybe runnin'
With my favourite song I'm hummin'
Da da da, da da da, da da da

I walked in to my house
Saw a spider in the bath tub
I nearly screamed, I nearly ran
'Cause he was just as scared I was

Call my mum, to tell her I love her
'Cause she always has been there for me
See, I'm blessed with a family
That'll love me till eternity

Da da da, da da da, da da da
And I'm glad to be alive
Da da da, da da da, da da da
Whatever it's like outside

Da da da, da da da, da da da
I'm just glad to be alive
Da da da, da da da, da da da

Dressing up with no effort
Got my hair up in a pony tail
My Adidas are getting rugged
I'll go buy myself another pair

Got a call from my boyfriend
Saying he'll be here at seven
Said he made a reservation
At our local dinin' station

As I walk down the street
Puddles soakin' up my feet
In the water there's reflections
Of the city street's projections

Stand and face me, just in case you
Miss a chance or two, embrace me
Keep on walking and holding hands tight
Let's enjoy this dark and rainy night

Started here, started there
With my skirts in knot
But I don't care

I got home, kissed my daughter
Jumped into bed with my lover
Listen to Harry Potter
On the cassette player audio

Da da da, da da da, da da da
And I'm glad to be alive
Da da da, da da da, da da da
With you out by my side

Da da da, da da da, da da da
I'm glad to be alive
Da da da, da da da, da da da
You make me glad to be alive

Da da da, da da da, da da da
Whatever it's like outside
Da da da, da da da, da da da
I'm just glad to be alive

Da da da, da da da, da da da
With you out by my side
Da da da, da da da, da da da

I'm so scared of the strain
And the wind and the rain
And the heartache and pain
'Cause it's all just a waste of the time
