Lyrics
I Got 24 Problems a Day
I never should have saved the Genie in the wishing well
Asked for good luck but he laughed as he cast his spell
I wake up and I know how my day will end
Trouble and disaster are my new friends
The floorboards creak and the faucet leaks
It only gets worse when I go to sleep
I got 24 problems a day
Bad luck stuck and it’s here to stay
I got 24 problems a day
7 days a week it feels like Monday
I should’ve left the Genie in the wishing well
My car won’t start when it does it stops
Can’t set my alarm with a broken clock
Then I get to work a half hour late
When I start to write my pencil breaks
Ain’t nothing you can do or say
To make my troubles go away
So I started making plans
To make that Genie pay
I got 24 problems a day
Bad luck stuck and it’s here to stay
I got 24 problems a day
7 days a week it feels like Monday
I should’ve left that Genie in his wishing well
Gonna turn his spell back on him
Light a black candle with incense and a mirror
So I’ll turn the tables so I can start again
I got 24 problems a day
Bad luck stuck and it’s here to stay
I
got 24 problems a day
7 days a week it feels like Monday
