歌词
[BASS LEAD-IN]
[VERSE ONE]
Just got outta bed at bout a quarter past eight /
Sposed to be at work already, 2 hours late /
Power went out; my cell phone's dead /
Big brass band bangin the bass in my head /
No time for Asprin or a toothbrush,
Ain't got time to piss /
That's right, mama said dey gon be days like dis, yeah
[CHORUS]
Mama said they gon be days like this /
Sometimes life is gonna be a real bitch /
Stressed to death but you can't phase my bliss /
Universe tests ya but cha better than it /
Catch ya breath don't sweat the small shit /
Mama said they gon be days like this
[FUNKY GUITAR SOLO]
[VERSE TWO]
Step out the door into in a puddle of mud /
Bit through my tongue, I can taste the blood /
Try to catch the subway; my card's revoked, please /
Tell me all this is just some kind of joke /
They gon fire my ass if I don't move real quick /
That's right, mama said there gon be days like this...
Like this, that's right
[CHORUS]
Mama said they gon be days like this /
Sometimes life is gonna be a real bitch /
Stressed to death but you can't phase my bliss /
Universe tests ya but cha better than it /
Catch ya breath don't sweat the small shit /
Mama said they gon be days like this
[BACKUP SINGER BRIDGE]
[BACKUP SINGER BRIDGE]
Need someone to say it's gonna be alright, I jus /
Need someone to tell me I'mma see tonight, it's like /
Everywhere I turn somebody tryna fight n I'm /
So far down the tunnel, I can't see no light! Just /
Hold on, baby, hang on and ride it out /
Hold on when the whole world is goin' south /
Hold on, when you wanna scream and shout, cuz it's /
Gonna get better, baby, ain't no doubt...
When ev'ry person alive is on ya shit list, 'memba /
Mama said, they gon be days like this... /
That's right, that's right!
[CHORUS]
Mama said, they gon be days like this.
Sometimes life is gonna be a real bitch!
Stressed to death, but you can't phase my bliss,
Universe tests ya, but cha better than it.
Catch ya breath, don't sweat the small shit, cuz
Mama said, they gon be days like this!
[VERSE 3]
Never feelin like I ever get that far...
Just quit smokin, car decided to start!
Three whole weeks since I last got paid, n
My girlfriend left me, but her boyfriend stayed!
I'm outta paper, tryin put my problems to a list,
Mmhm, mama said, they gon be days like this!
[DRUM SOLO]

Mama said, they gon be days like this.
Sometimes life is gonna be a real bitch!
Stressed to death, but you can't phase my bliss,
Universe tests ya, but cha better than it.
Catch ya breath, don't sweat the small shit, cuz
Mama said, they gon be days like this!
