"Perfect Day"
The hobo walked with much pride, walked into the big office
Now the decision was made, that he would no job miss
His back straight, because he were there today to apply
It's always worth a try, the only limit is the mighty blue sky
The manager wrinkled his nose, who was this hobo
He looked at the hobo, I don't care if you play the oboe
We have many applicants, I'm not sure this is for you
Go back to where you came from, you know it's true
As the hobo left, neither of them noticed the shadow
Coming up from behind the manager, it seemed to grow
Only a muffled sound, nothing more was ever heard
From the manager, as he was gripped by something hard
Next the hobo came to a tailor, he was proud in his spot
Had the money to buy a suit, that would help him a lot
The tailor shook his head, sorry but I'm closing right now
Why the hobo asked, the sign says that until 5 you'll sew
As the hobo left he smiled, nothing could get his spirits down
Behind him still inside, the tailor begun on a wedding gown
Before his first stitch was half-way through, something came
And what happened at the office, happened again all the same
The hobo had one more stop, on his list of daily endevours
It was a country club, designed for the rich and the famous
He asked for the owner, who came running in a real hurry
When he saw the hobo his pace quickly changed, why worry
The hobo was turned away, cause of his current looks this day
But as he walked away, behind him the owner was taken away
The same shadow as before, it had lurked real close to them
What was it, what protected the hobo as if he were a gem
Coming back to his alley, the hobo sat down before too long
He was still in good spirits, humming on a happy little song
Nothing could ever get his spirits down, he was truly strong
He knew, that one day the good news would come in a throng
Suddenly the phone rang, just while he was eating cake
The man from the office said, it seems I made a mistake
I really want you for this job, it seems that you are perfect
Can you start now, this choice is truly the one to be correct
Soon the phone rang, and the hobo answered a second time
The tailor said, it was my mistake for you a suit is just a dime
To make up for my rude behaviour, please accept my apology
The hobo said kindly, good tailor there is no reason to worry
Very soon after, the phone rang out it's third cry for the day
This is truly a busy day the hobo thought, oh my oh my
Now the club owner asked for forgivness, I know you're really hip
Could you please accept this small token, a life-time membership
As Baxter a final time hung up the phone, he smiled happily
He had always known it, there was no need to ever worry
Things always works out for the best, that's the way of the world
At that though he turned around, thought he'd something heard
Behind him a shadow grew out, stepping out in his own style
His ninja friend Hody stood there, mask off and with a smile
How are you today my friend, have you any good news today
Oh yes I surely have, today have been a really perfect day!
