Woke up with the daylight crawling through the blinds Made a cup of coffee, left the clock behind Read a few headlines, let the bad news slide Put on something easy, stepped outside Went downtown to see what the day might do No appointment, no one I had to answer to Asked a cop for directions, he said, “Try down the block” I heard a kick drum pounding, so I followed the knock Walked in, let the ceiling shake Every beat hit hard, every nerve awake Got a little bored — so what? Found a heavier beat next door and walked right through Just the fun stuff — all day, all night Nothing hanging over my head tonight Just the fun stuff — take the long way round If the bass hits hard, I’ll follow that sound Just the fun stuff — I can make my way I can lose a whole day and love it anyway Just the fun stuff — come what may What a beautiful, beautiful waste of a day Got hungry, went hunting for a place to eat Took a wrong turn down a crooked side street I lost the restaurant, but I found the night Street signs spinning, every wrong turn felt right Stopped at a pub, but the whiskey was weak So I kept on walking, looking for something neat Found a low-lit bar where the red lights glow Bass line in my chest said, “Don’t go home” The night got deep, but I stayed in the flow No map, no clock, no place I had to go I wasn’t lost, I was out on my own Every wrong turn felt more like home Just the fun stuff — all day, all night Nothing hanging over my head tonight Just the fun stuff — take the long way round If the bass hits hard, I’ll follow that sound Just the fun stuff — I can make my way I can lose a whole day and love it anyway Just the fun stuff — come what may What a beautiful, beautiful waste of a day I got sleepy sometime after two One minute I was wide awake, next thing I knew Morning was pouring through the blinds Coffee on the counter, no regrets, no rewind Just the fun stuff — all day, all night Nothing hanging over my head tonight Just the fun stuff — take the long way round If the bass hits hard, I’ll follow that sound Just the fun stuff — no one to impress No one gets to grade my happiness I can lose a whole day and love it anyway What a beautiful, beautiful waste of a day What a day, what a day Just the fun stuff all the way Wake up, pour the coffee, step outside Let the city roll, let the feeling decide
