Did you do your home work
Did you do it right
Did it keep you occupied
Throughout the longest night
When your teacher assigned it
They were out of their mind
Beaten and broken
Scared for the future
Always one step behind

But did you do your homework
Ringing out the liberty bell
I could see the horizon in your eyes
Was it real I couldn’t tell
When the byzantine regulations
Are finally done with you
You won’t have a voice of your own
Or a single person to talk to

Did you do your homework
Was it worth the sweat
The sun is sinking down below the horizon
But it’s not dark yet
When the past is done with you
You won’t have anything left
Not a beating heart in your chest
Or two lungs filled with breath

Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 9+ years.

Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.

You can see my most current song, as well as songs from year's past over at http://songaday.org
