Took a look around this co*ktail landscape
At the mud and the blood and the beer
No more Balmain irony
No more clubhouse cheer
Red salmon running way up the river
Red sky's a sailor's delight
Mother's stand in their calendered kitchens
Blue Hills broke the night
Chorus ~
She caught my eye
Said don't you deny
Surround yourself with light
She said
Any day above ground is a good day
Any moment alone with you
Any day above ground is a good day and true
We were sittin' and a'chewing Marlboros
Smoking on the red brick flats
Calling all the cars on Davey Street
Laughing at the boys in black
Chorus +
Any day above ground is a good day
Any moment alone with you
Any day above ground is a good day and true
She caught my eye
Said don't you deny
Surround yourself with light
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
She caught my eye
Said don't you deny
Surround yourself with light
Chorus
Any day above ground is a good day
Any moment alone with you
Any day above ground is a good day and true
She said
Any day above ground is a good day
Any moment alone with you
Any day above ground is a good day and true
