lyrics:

it's a shattered day all around
it's a shattered day in our town,
seems wrong,
it's a saturnday all the time
it's a saturnday once again,
nice time.
it's another day down the drain
it's another day just the same,
so what,
it's a stupid day on this day
it's a stupid day everyday,
good bye
you'd make great fiction, you make great friction.
you'd make great fiction, you make great friction.
so it's history, you can count me out, it's not apathy, it's incomplete
you'd make great fiction, you make great friction.
you'd make great fiction, you make great friction.
flying in the mainstream, second third time not a dream, and a crown don't mean a thing, 
when it's made of pain.
you'd make great fiction, you make great friction.
you'd make great fiction, you make great friction.
i'm not the king of pain, put it down the drain, shame it's not obvoius, i'm not a prodigy.




Footnote:

The sound is heavily feedbacked and noisy so its hard to hear the correct chords. Any 
comments are welcome.
