  • mod song

    When I was younger, my sister was a mod,sharing a room her songs got drummed into me, does anyone know this,(just a few lines sorry)
    "wake up in the morning, but its dark outside,turn on the radio,and listen to the music,grab another drink of tea,but you're still tired,wonder why you feel as though you're turning on sorrow owwwowwo. It may of been the Jam ,but as I say she classed herself as a "mod". wish you could hear the tune in my head lol. I often get it in my head, but I've no idea what it is, and my sister cant remember.

        I was searching earlier for this..don't think its the Jam.
        Did she listen to Secret Affair,Merton Parkas,The Chords or any of the other mod bands?
        any more lyrics? fast song or slow?

            A big thank you to those who tried to help,We had a family kids birthday party today,and me and my sister were talking about this song yet again,one of the dad's there knew it straight away,It was by a Band called The Gents and the song was called day to day,it's took years to find out, but as a very wise man told me recently,someone out there will always know.

            Day to Day

            You wake up in the morning but it's dark outside
            Turn on the radio and listen to the music
            Take another drink of tea but you're still tired
            You wonder why you feel as though you're missing something.

            You do the same as you did just the day before
            And you know you're gonna do the same tomorrow
            You hope someone someday will open up a door
            But you can't see an end to your eternal sorrow.

            Every day is just the same routine
            Like a film that you've already seen
            In your mind you've got to break away
            Break free from the endless day today.

            Grass is always greener on the other side
            Thinking 'bout if I could, what I would have done
            And if I had the courage to live with my pride
            The dreams lost in everything would come undone.

            Every day is just the same routine
            Like a film that you've already seen
            In your mind you've got to break away
            Break free from the endless day today.

            You wake up in the morning but it's dark outside
            Turn on the radio and listen to the music (listen to the music)
            Take another drink of tea but you're still tired
            You wonder why you feel as though you're missing something.



            Thanks again
            Heather

                The bloke at the party said they only did a few albums, and were a bit of "a flash in the pan" but if you go to there web site, and look at the
                first thing it say's at the top was very apt I thought.

                  You've done it again!!
                  After searching for that song,I finally found a site that had an MP3 of a song called "There must be Thousands" by The Quads. Had not heard that song since 1979!!
                  Thanks H
