When I awoke this morning there was light all around the place
Get to the bathroom mirror can that sight really be my face
Go downstairs, the sunshine glares across the welcome mat
Slippers on must get along to where the action's at

And so the day breaks over motley cat and me
I read the Sunday paper and have a nice cup of tea

And so into the kitchen wondering, what I did last night
And open up the corn flakes that they says nutra sheds delight
Rummage in the sink to find a plate, it's almost clean
I think this is the worst state that the kitchen's ever been

And so the day breaks over motley cat and me
I read the Sunday paper and have a nice cup of tea

There's nothing wrong
And the kettle's on
I think I'll have a cup of tea
And it's OK
It's a lovely day
A lovely day for motley cat and me
