No.418 As Always, Cheerfully

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
At 5 AM, my smartphone alarm goes off.
I get out of bed and turn off the alarm.
I look out the window; it’s still dark outside.
I go to the kitchen.

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I wash my hands with soap.
I fill the kettle and pot with water.

[Chorus 1]
She says, “Good morning.”
I reply, “Good morning.”
As always, cheerfully,
That’s how the day begins.

[Verse 2]
I put them on the gas stove.
I set the kettle to high heat and the boil detection.
I set the pot to low heat.

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I take the carrots out of the refrigerator.
I peel it with a knife.

[Chorus 2]
She says, “Good morning.”
I reply, “Good morning.”
As always, cheerfully,
That’s how the day begins.

[Instrumental Solo]

[Verse 3]
I slice them and put them in the pot.
I bring the harvested radishes.
I separate the leaves from the roots.
I cut the stems and wash them.

[Pre-Chorus 3]
I chop them finely.
Then I sliced the root into half-moons.

[Chorus 3]
She says, “Good morning.”
I reply, “Good morning.”
As always, cheerfully,
That’s how the day begins.

[Bridge]
She said, “Hey, isn’t that a lot of radish?”
I replied, “It’s just your imagination.”

[Final Chorus 3]
She says, “Good morning.”
I reply, “Good morning.”
As always, cheerfully,
That’s how the day begins.
