Somewhere on earth, there is a new day
Somewhere on earth, people get paid
A new day has less than twenty four hours
Earth orbits around the sun 366.2499 days a year
Which brings hope, joy, love, and despair
The future encompasses several flairs
Of new days. As long as there is life
There is a new day for the wife
To talk about. Tomorrow is of course a new day
However, people rarely talk about a new night
Because people fear darkness and dark sights
There is a new day somewhere in the universe
Only on earth, there is a new day
Only on earth, time walks, runs, and matters
Only on earth, there is a payday
Which means nothing in the stratosphere
There is no day. There is no fear
Everything is constant and linear
And everything is dead and near.
