[Verse 1]

Looking at the cop in the rear view mirror

Probably should have stopped but the crosswalk was clear

I'll just imagine it's a ticket to a Broadway show

Looking at the clouds and they seem kinda funny

Probably gonna rain but my outlook is sunny

I'll just imagine that I'm laying out in Mexico


[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause I know that pleasures gotta come with pain

And I know that things won't always go my way

And I know life is gonna suck some days


[Chorus]

But I can't complain

I can't complain

Every days too short to let it go to waste

Now I can't complain

I can't complain

You gotta treat every day like a holiday


[Post-Chorus]

And I'm telling you that I know some days I'm gonna stumble

And I know the cookie's gonna crumble

And I know life is gonna suck some days

But I can't complain


[Verse 2]

Waiting on a never ending train at the crossing

Paying it no mind 'cause we just keep talking

We'll just imagine it's the good old days and take it slow

Spending Christmas Eve on the floor of the airport

Dying to get back to the people that I care for

Smiling, just dreaming about my puppy in my bed back home


[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause I know that pleasures gotta come with pain

And I know that things won't always go my way

And I know life is gonna suck some days


[Chorus]

But I can't complain

I can't complain

Every days too short to let it go to waste

Now I can't complain

I can't complain

You gotta treat every day like a holiday


[Post-Chorus]

And I'm telling you that I know some days I'm gonna stumble

And I know the cookie's gonna crumble

And I know life is gonna suck some days


[Bridge]

If you can't say nothing good, don't say nothing

If you stop to think you could come up with something

That makes you feel so good when times are rough it's okay

I can't complain

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Don't let it go to waste


[Chorus]

Now I can't complain (Can't complain)

I can't complain (Can't complain)

Every days too short to let it go to waste

Now I can't complain (Can't complain)

I can't complain (No, I can't complain)

You gotta treat every day like a holiday


[Outro]

And I'm telling you that I know some days I'm gonna stumble

And I know the cookie's gonna crumble

And I know life is gonna suck some days

But I can't complain
