You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me, don't lie
You work at a smile, and you go for your life
You had a bad day
The morning came and found you sleeping
You're out of bed and still dreaming
You're so ashamed, you fake it
You made it through the wilderness
Something's missing
You don't know what
This ain't your lucky day
You had a bad day
You're talking in you sleep
Things you never say
You open up your heart, but still there's a price to pay
You're searching for a rainbow
On a cloudy day
You close your eyes and slip away
You had a bad day
So take the photographs and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good time
That's the only way you'll find
Oh yeah
That it was just a bad day
You thought you'd cruised right through the danger zone
But on a Friday night, you get a dose of your own medicine
You've got a fever on the floor, and you've got a splitting headache
You've got a fever, and you're feeling like a piece of meat
You've got a bad day
That's the only way you'll find
That it was just a bad day
You had a bad day
