It's a sunny day in California    But that old sun it's shining on me right here at home    It's one of those days    When those great ideas they just seem to fall out on you    And they always fall the greatest when you're falling all alone    It makes for a good day for some serious reflection    And massive rationalization    For contemplating the future of the future    And the last of the past    And wondering if you could ever forgive me darling    All the trouble that I put to you    And if I could forget all those questions    That I never asked    And if I could forgive    The temporary weight gain due to excess water retention    I could forgive the rest too    It's just a fact of life    That no one cares to mention    She wasn't good    But she had good intentions       So the grass it grows    When the sun it shines    And my face it glows    When the woman's mine    And you say I'm a fool-around    Honey that may be true    But I'd sooner fool around    Than be a fool for a fool    And if I could forgive    The unadulterated adulterating apprehension    I could forgive the rest too    It's just a fact of life    That no one cares to mention    She wasn't good    But she had good intentions       So I'm twenty-six and rising    Still too young to live    But too low to go    I guess it's the process    Of learning to excess    All of those things    That you already know    And if I could forgive    The honey-I-swear-it-didn't-mean-a-thing-to-me    Attempt at abstention    I could forgive the rest too    It's just a fact of life    That no ones cares to mention    She wasn't good    But she had good intentions
