Smokey Joe & The Kid Yesterday Is Gone Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah
Focus on the present
Yesterday is gone, today is here and now
Yo

[Chorus]
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
They say...

[Verse 1]
Yo, yo
Can I control delete my day
And prolly just start a new one
Sun is brighter for my neighbour eating sorbet
Morning cup of coffee: first sip, I missed my mouth
From two inches dropped it floor thank god i have no carpet
Look into the mirror, my reflection still sleeping
Corruptions on the daily just copulates the headline
But yesterday must be greater than tomorrow, yo
But yesterday seemed to be filled with some sorrow

[Chorus]
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
They say...

[Verse 2]
Ayo
Up bright and early here's a price for you nerdy
See my brain stays sunny, never once chase a bunny
I wish I found a brown paper bag waiting for me But last I seen it was destined to a deputy
I'm late for work, I can't find my keys, I'm sweating bullets
The corporation owns forest who lends the money
I'm daily throwing freebies with a bag full of candy
With some confidence on the plate, I'm bound to hit the birdie
Bumping jay elect, my favourite is candyman
But while we feed the idiot box just like a bag of sand
I'm rapping to my wall paint the picture so clear
And spin the wheel, staying focus and also stay near
And trust the process and do more and say less
And leave the door open, let in some fresh some air
But yesterday must be greater than tomorrow yo
But yesterday seemed to be filled with some sorrow

[Chorus / Outro]
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
Yesterday was greater than today, so they say
They say...
