we've all become the same, only our accents change

san francisco bay
past pier thirty nine
early p.m.
can't remember what time
got the waiting cab
stopped at the red light
address, unsure of
but it turned out just right

it started straight off
"coming here is hell"
that's his first words
we asked what he meant
he said " where ya from?"
we told him our lot
"when ya' take a holiday
is this what you want?"

so have a nice day
have a nice day
have a nice day
have a nice day

lie around all day
have a drink to chase
"yourself and tourists, yeah
that's what i hate"
he said "we're going wrong
we've all become the same
we dress the same ways
only our accents change"

so have a nice day
have a nice day
have a nice day
have a nice day

swim in the ocean
that be my dish
i drive around all day
and kill processed fish
it's all money gum
no artists anymore
you're only in it now
to make more, more, more

so have a nice day
have a nice day
have a nice day
have a nice day

have a nice day
have a nice day
have a nice day
have a nice day


have a nice day, the stereophonics
