[edit] Overview
"My Day is Coming" was written by Weezer lead singer Rivers Cuomo in 2006. The song was demoed, along with "Heart Songs", in a Japanese mega-mall recording studio while Cuomo was on honeymoon in Japan. It is an ode to the U.S. men's soccer team. Cuomo would later write "Represent," another ode to the U.S. men's national soccer team, in 2010.
[edit] Lyrics
Sometimes I lose my pride
And leave my best behind
And everybody has a good laugh
But still I understand
The chance is in my hand
Someday I'm going to make 'em believe
So people all around
Let me hear you lay it down
This is all the hope I have
My day is coming
My day is coming
My day is coming, it's coming up someday
It ain't too far from now
I'm gonna work it out
Today is better than yesterday
My shining star will rise
And lead me to the prize
The best of times are on the way
So people all around
Let me hear you lay it down
This is all the hope I have
My day is coming, it's coming someday
My day is coming, it might be today
My day is coming, it's coming up someday
And when I get the things I want to have
Will I look back on the critics
Will I say that they were stupid
That they underestimated me all along
Landon Donovan, DaMarcus Beasley, Freddy Adu, Clint Dempsey, Oguchi Onyewu, Bobby Convey, Eddie Johnson, Steve Cherundolo, Brian Ching, Carlos Bocanegra, Jimmy Conrad, Pat Noonan, Let me hear you say
My day is coming, it's coming someday
My day is coming, it might be today
My day is coming, it's coming up someday
My day is coming, it's coming up someday
