What A Day Lyrics - Tanya Stephens

Oh, what a day, oh 

Oh, what a day, oh 

Day, what a day, what a day, oh, oh 

I'm tired of the hunger I see on people's faces 

Tired of the animosity between the races 

Tired of corruption in high and low places 

And pricks with money but no social graces 

Tired of being judged for the style in my hair 

And the music that I listen and the clothes that I wear 

I'm tired of life and death being sold as a pair 

And politicians who keep saying they care but 

Maybe hoping for a change is a dream 

Maybe life ain't as bad as it seems 

But if dreaming is the best I can do 

Then I'll be dreaming my whole life through 

Oh, what a day when war becomes a thing of the past 

And peace, we will have it at last 

And life is finally worth its cost 

And woah, woah, oh 

What a day when men finally live what they teach 

And love ain't just a concept we preach 

And blood no longer runs in the streets 

Woah, woah, woah, oh, what a day 

Tired of leaving church, feeling like I've just been robbed 

Two hours of rambling, not much mention of God 

The richest man's the only one who does not have a job 

A bunch of righteous freaks extorting worse than the mob, y'all 

Tired of baby, momma, tired of baby, daddy 

Chilling in the spot where the parents should be 

Teenage mother saying, "Leave my babies alone" 

In 20 years the kid could be robbing my home but 

I got a vision of a whole other plain 

Where the spiritual can flourish again 

I'm just awaiting for the fire to rain 

Burn dung everything and start clean 

What a day when war becomes a thing of the past 

And peace, we will have it at last 

And life is finally worth its cost 

And woah, woah, oh 

Oh, what a day when men finally live what they teach 

And love ain't just a concept we preach 

And blood no longer runs in the streets 

And woah, woah, woah, oh, what a day 

Ooh, what a day 

Oh, what a day 

Oh, what a day, what a day, what a day 

Maybe hoping for a change is a dream 

Maybe life ain't as bad as it seems 

But if dreaming is the best I can do 

Then I'll be dreaming my whole life through 

Oh, what a day when war becomes a thing of the past 

And peace, we will have it at last 

And life is finally worth its cost 

And woah, woah, woah
