Squeeze - Grouch of the Day lyrics

(Difford/Tilbrook)

I feel my chin hit my chest

As I do my best to stay calm

I feel my face start to ache

As I try to shake the alarm

As I roll on my side

There's a smile on her face

That says much more than words ever will

About how she maintains all the spirit she's gained

When I'm grouch of the day

When I've drifted away

And I'm moping around in a sulk

She'll have something to say

And I usually obey

Then I get my resentments in bulk

That's the price that you pay

For being grouch of the day

As my legs start to shake

The feeling is great and I'm gone

I feel butterflies wing

As she starts to sling music on

As she rolls on her back

With her smile full of charm

That says much more than words ever will

About how the delight of her good time tonight

Makes me look like I'm over the hill

Her beauty erodes

The desperate loads

Of pressure that fills up my day

With one smile all the stress melts away
