lyrics

Why Not Wednesday? by Steph Anne Best

I say... tell me why not Wednesday?
Then, I'll be happy;
I will tell myself necessary lies.
I'm just trying to get the goods out
'til I write my way across your London skies.

Wednesday comes before and follows everything.
Why can't I catch up with time again?
And, oh, I've swallowed as I falter...
Why can't I find a way to speak
on the right side of the week?

I say... tell me lately, Thursday.
By then, I'll be runnin',
I will paint myself a dark, delicious sky.
I'm just trying to breathe the hurt out
'til I meet the smile that's written 'cross my eyes.

Wednesday comes before and follows everything.
Why can't I catch up with time again?
And, oh, I've swallowed as I falter...
Why can't I find a way to speak
on the right side of the week?

Wednesday, like a picture,
fallen from its frame.
Wednesday is a diamond
with a cheap, forgotten name.
Wednesday, Wednesday... is stronger than they say.

Wednesday comes before and follows everything.
Why can't I catch up with time again?
Why can't I catch up with time again?
Why can't I find a way to speak
on the right side of the week?

I say...
tell me why not Wednesday?
