lyrics
Watch the good times pass us by
And we let them get away
Our egos rob us blind
And we let them get away
We’re out of our minds
Ho ho, ho ho, it’s just another day! (x2)
Why can’t we go out without
Forgetting our own name
Walkin’ tall from place to place
You were just a pretty face
With yourself to blame.
Shananigans!!
Dead, alive, or getting by
They all cost a price we don’t want to pay
Thinking life will owe you something
The most dangerous game to play
We play it every day
No day more beautiful than today
And you’ll deny it, and that’s why its
Just a…
Ho ho, ho ho, it’s just another day! (x4)
Shananigans!!
You are today, put a smile on your face
You are today, there’s nothing wrong with being happy.
And we let them get away
Our egos rob us blind
And we let them get away
We’re out of our minds
Ho ho, ho ho, it’s just another day! (x2)
Why can’t we go out without
Forgetting our own name
Walkin’ tall from place to place
You were just a pretty face
With yourself to blame.
Shananigans!!
Dead, alive, or getting by
They all cost a price we don’t want to pay
Thinking life will owe you something
The most dangerous game to play
We play it every day
No day more beautiful than today
And you’ll deny it, and that’s why its
Just a…
Ho ho, ho ho, it’s just another day! (x4)
Shananigans!!
You are today, put a smile on your face
You are today, there’s nothing wrong with being happy.
