Gnomes Had a Good Day

Just wakin up in the morning Gotta thank God No barking from the dog And mama cook the breakfast With no hog I got my grub on but didn't pig out Finally got a call From a girl a wanna dig out Hooked it up on later as I hit the door Thinkin' "will I live another 24?"

A sequence of whimsical garden-gnome illustrations follows the lyrics of Ice Cube’s “It Was a Good Day,” with gnomes waking up, praying, eating breakfast, receiving a call from a girl, leaving home, and wondering whether they will survive another day. The joke comes from applying the tough, streetwise rap narrative to cute, rustic gnome artwork, making it useful as an ironic reaction to an unexpectedly perfect—or suspiciously uneventful—day.

Just waking up in the morning gotta thank God. I don't know but today seems kinda odd. No barking from the door, no small. And mama cooked the breakfast with no hope. I got my grub on, but didn't dig out. Finally got a call from a girl I wanted to hear as I hit the door. Thinking will I live another 24?
