There's no use living for today
There's no use living for today
Well today was once tomorrow
And today's tomorrows' yesterday
There's no use living for today

The girl i love is up and gone
The girl i love is up and gone
She left yesterday morning
And by supper time i had a brand new song
The girl i left is up and gone

The cat is scratching at my door
Got a big black cat and he's scratching at my door
He runs by me kind of funny cause i've never let him in before
The cat is scratching at my door

Everybody needs some time away
(don't you think?)
Everybody needs a little bit of time away
She'll only be gone for the weekend
But it feels like sunday every
Everybody needs some time away

She's coming in on the 1209
My baby's coming on the 1209
She will ask me about the weekend
And i'll lie and tell her it was fine
She'll be coming in on the 1209

There's no use living for today
There's no use living for today
Well today was once tomorrow
And today's tomorrows' yesterday
There's no use living for today
