Any Day Might be the Day
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

[instrumental]

In the den of his small house
Alfred watched the news
He could hear the kids upstairs
His wife was cooking stew

He had been spending too much time
Doing nothing every day
He no longer worked the line
He no longer got the pay

His job no longer needed
His whole life gone to hell
The whole world was getting poorer
Just a few were doing well

[instrumental]

He'd been born here in LA
But his mother further South
He been told back at the plant
To eat beans and shut his mouth

It was clearer day by day
Things were not going to get better
Pretty soon it would be colder
And the maga's getting bolder

[bridge]

He had been an elec-trician
He knew how to make a spark
He was troubled by ideas
And bit by bit he lost his fears

It was time to do his part
It was time to make them pay
He could still get in the plant
Any day might be the day

[instrumental]

[instrumental]

It was time to make them pay
Any day might be the day

It was time to make them pay
Any day might be the day

Any day might be the day
