Ice Cube: It was a good day 

Just wakin' up in the mornin', gotta thank God,

I don't know, but today seems kinda odd,

No barkin' from the dog, no smog,

And Momma cooked a breakfast with no hog.

I got my grub on, but didn't pig out,

Finally got a call from a girl I wanna dig out.

Hooked it up for later as I hit the dough,

Thinkin' will I live another twenty-fo'?

I gotta go 'cause I got me a drop-top,

And if I hit the switch, I can make the ass drop.

Had to stop at a red light,

Lookin' in my mirror, not a jacker in sight,

And everything is alright,

I got a beep from Kim, and she can fuck all night.

Called up the homeys and I'm maxin', y'all,

Which park are y'all playin' basketball?

Get me on the court and I'm trouble,

Last week, fucked around and got a triple double,

Freakin' niggas every way like M.J.,


I can't belive today was a good day.



Drove to the pad and hit the showers,

Didn't even even get no static from the cowards,

'Cause just yesterday them fools tried to blast me,

Saw the police, and they rolled right past me.


No flexin', didn't even look in the nigga's direction,

As I ran the intersection,

Went to Short Dog's house, they was watchin' Yo! MTV raps,

What's the haps on the craps?

Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em,

Roll 'em in a circle of niggas and watch me break 'em,

With the seven, seven eleven, seven eleven, seven even back do' little Joe,

I picked up the cash flow,

Then we played bones, and I'm yellin' domino,

Plus nobody I know got killed in South Central L.A.

Today was a good day.



Left my nigga's house payed,

Picked up a girl been tryin' to fuck since the twelfth grade,

It's ironic, I had the boom, she had the chronic,

The Lakers beat the Supersonics.

I felt on the big, fat fanny,

Pulled out the jammy, and killed the punany,

And my dick runs deep, so deep,

So deep, put her ass to sleep.

Woke her up around one,

She didn't hesitate to Ice Cube the top gun.

Drove her to the pad and I'm coastin'

Took another sip of the potion, hit the three-wheel motion.

I was glad everything had worked out,

Dropped her ass of and then jerked out.

Today was like one of those fly dreams,

Didn't even see a berry flashin' those high beams,

No helicopter lookin' for a murder,

Two in the morning, got the fat burger,

Even saw the lights of the Goodyear blimp,

And it read, "Ice Cube's a pimp."

Drunk as Hell, but no throwin' up,


Halfway home, and my pager's still blowin' up,

Today I didn't even have to use my AK,

I gotta say it was a good day.
