lyrics

I've had days
where the sun is shining brightly
and everything goes rightly
in a yellow kinda haze
but today
is not one of those days

It's just an ugly panty day
the kind where
all the toilet paper's gone
and exes will not move along
and the gas is disconnected by a guy
and even though he's kind enough to wait
while you pay the fee online
you still pay the fine

so put away that satin silk and lace
and slap a stupid smile on your face
put back your whites and ivories
because of your damn ovaries
drink wine with friends who love you when you're fat
cause like grandma says
this too shall pass

It's an ugly panty day
the kind where
people have no protocol
and then you miss your lover's call
and that ounce of vodka calls your name at noon
and even if you had the nerve to tie
one on before the clock strikes six
you know it's not a fix

so put away that satin silk and lace
and slap a stupid smile on your face
put back your whites and ivories
because of your damn ovaries
drink wine with friends who love you when you're fat
cause like grandma says
this too shall pass

Some women have used PMS as an excuse for crime.
Others think it's overused for keeping men in line.
I'm not gonna take it to the lengths of that extreme.
I'll just eat my chocolate and try not to be so mean.

so put away that satin silk and lace
and slap a stupid smile on your face
put back your whites and ivories
because of your damn ovaries
drink wine with friends who love you when you're fat
cause like grandma says
this too shall pass

I've had days
where the sun is shining brightly
and everything goes rightly
in a yellow kinda haze
but today
was an ugly panty day

about

Dawn Boudreau Vancouver, British Columbia

I used to think I was a jazz musician - but I must confess: I’m a folk musician who writes with a jazzy twist, sometimes with hints of musical theatre. Having achieved a comfortable state of middle-aged happiness, I love to share stories from the journey I traveled to get here. ... more
