[Verse 1: Terry Kath]

Today when I awoke

The morning blues hung over me

So, I looked it straight in the eye

I jumped into the shower

For 'bout an hour, ah, it was fine

Yeah, it helps me all the time

It's soothing to my mind

Just to see those blues

Go slippin' down the drain


[Verse 2: Terry Kath]

Now I usually have my breakfast

Which consists of tasting spam

Yeah, I could eat it all day long

But I only love one brand

And I can't find it way out here

So, I have to take a pass

And settle for some hash

What a drag, you're not here

Oh, sweet, sweet spam
