Quotidian: Occurring or returning daily; Of an everyday character
Example: Bob Dylan (I used him last SWOD) writes of the quotidian draw of daily life in the song “Workingman’s Blues #2” which is off of Dylan’s 32nd studio album “Modern Times” which was released in 2006. The song is crowded with Dylan’s story-telling lyric, but always comes back to the four line chorus which supports the SWOD.
“Meet me at the bottom, don’t lag behind
Bring me my boots and shoes
You can hang back or fight your best on the front line
Sing a little bit of these workingman’s blues”
The chorus repeats several times in the same fashion of the work day. It is sure worth a listen.
