Black Letter Day

Frank Black


Every day I work 
Every day's the same 
The sun is going down when I get home 

And every day gets worse 
Every day I curse the one who 
Left me here alone 

Every night I take 
Something for my sleep 
Every night I dream the world away 

And when the morning breaks 
I wake and see it's just another 
Long black letter day 

Don't cry (don't cry) 
Don't start (don't start) 
Don't fret your (don't fret your) 
Poor heart (poor heart) 
You know it's just another 
Long black letter day [x2] SOLO [x1] 

Excuse me please 
Do you have the time? 
And can you tell me what's it matter anyway? 

Please pardon me sir 
Do you know the date? 
What is the number? 
It's just another 
Long black letter day 

Don't cry (don't cry) 
Don't start (don't start) 
Don't fret your (don't fret your) 
Poor heart (poor heart) 
You know it's just another 
Long black letter day [x2] 

Just another 
Long black letter day (long black letter day)
