today is a good day

Yeah (you are) Yeah (you are) (You are) Just wakin' up in the mornin', gotta thank God I don't know, but today seems kinda odd No barkin' from the dog, no smog And mama cooked the breakfast with no hog I got my grub on, but didn't pig out Finally got a call from a girl I wanna dig out Hooked it up for later as I hit the door Thinkin', "Will I live another 24?" I gotta go 'cause I got me a drop-top And if I hit the switch, I can make the ass drop Had to stop at a red light Lookin' in my mirror, not a jacker in sight And everything is alright I got a beep from Kim, and she can do it all night Called up the homies, and I'm askin' y'all "Which park are y'all playin' basketball?" Get me on the court and I'm trouble Last week, messed around and got a triple-double Freakin' brothers every way like MJ I can't believe today was a good day Drove to the pad and hit the showers Didn't even get no static from the cowards 'Cause just yesterday them fools tried to blast me Saw the police and they rolled right past me No flexin', didn't even look in a brother's direction as I ran the intersection Went to Short Dog's house, they was watchin' Yo! MTV Raps What's the haps on the craps? Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em Roll 'em in a circle of homies and watch me break 'em with the seven 7-11, 7-11, seven, even back door Little Joe I picked up the cash flow Then we played bones, and I'm yellin', "Domino" Plus, nobody I know got killed in South Central L.A. Today was a good day Left my homie's house paid (word) Picked up a girl been tryna dig since the 12th grade It's ironic, I had the brew, she had the chronic The Lakers beat the Supersonics Felt on the big fat fanny Pulled out the jammy and killed the punani And my jimmy runs deep, so deep So deep put her butt to sleep Woke her up around one She didn't hesitate to call Ice Cube the top gun Drove her to the pad and I'm coastin' Took another sip of the potion, hit the three-wheel motion I was glad everything had worked out Dropped her butt off and then chirped out Today was like one of those fly dreams Didn't even see a berry flashin' those high beams No helicopter lookin' for the murder Two in the morning, got the Fatburger Even saw the lights of the Goodyear Blimp And it read "Ice Cube's a Pimp" Drunk as hell but no throwin' up Halfway home and my pager still blowin' up Today I didn't even have to use my AK I gotta say it was a good day Hold up, Pooh, stop this, man I don't know what I'm thinkin' about
