R.E.M. - Bad Day lyrics
[R.E.M. - Bad Day lyrics]
Home the other day
I paid it never mind, go away
Shit so thick you could stir it
With a stick-free Teflon
Whitewashed presidency
We're sick of being jerked around
Wear that on your sleeve
Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times
Lord count your blessings
We're sick of being jerked around
We all fall down
Have you ever seen the televised St
Vitus subcommittee prize investigation dance?
Those-ants-in pants glances
Well, look behind the eyes
It's a hallowed, hollow, anesthetized
"save my own ass, screw these guys"
Smoke-and-mirror lockdown
Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times
Lord count your blessings
The papers wouldn't lie i sigh, not one more
It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day please
It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day please
We're dug in deep, the price is steep
The auctioneer is such a creep
The lights went out, the oil ran dry
We blamed it on the other guy
Sure, all men are created equal
Here's the church, here's the steeple
Please stay tuned, we cut to sequel
Ashes, ashes, we all fall down
Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times
Lord count your blessings
Ignore the lower fears oh, this means war
It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day please
It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day please
(Du-du du du du du-du du du du
Du-du du du du du-du du du du)
Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times
Lord count your blessings
We're sick of being jerked around
We all fall down
It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day please
It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day please
It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day please
It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day please
(Du-du du du du du-du du du du
Du-du du du du du-du du du du)
