Million Days

Bad Religion · Into The Unknown [1983]

when you're sitting alone, frown and groan

over your bad day

when you're laughing with peers

forget your years, then be on your way

but don't forget, all the while

that you've crossed the social mile

and a million days is worth one good laugh

but don't forget, all the while

that you've crossed the social mile

and a million days is worth one good laugh
