Bad Day (Outtake)
[Verse 1]
A public service announcement followed me home the other day
I bade it never mind
The shit's so thick, you could stir it with a stick
The paper wouldn't lie, we assume the loss to mankind and gloat and jeer with it

Broadcast me a joyful noise into the times, Lord
Count your blessings, ignore the lowest fear, well you can't sandblast glisten

Radio no, play the game, three words, first one short
Magazine, book, cinema, N - O - down
Many fears are gone, step down, step down
Watch a heel crush, ah this means war

I saw the light, it can't be right

Broadcast me a joyful noise into the times, Lord
Count your blessings, ignore the lowest fear, well you can't sandblast

It's been a bad day, please don't take my picture
It's been a bad day, please
It's been a bad day, please don't take my picture
It's been a bad day, please

A public service announcement followed me home the other day
I bade it never mind
The shit's so thick, you could stir it with a stick
The paper wouldn't lie, we assume the loss to mankind and gloat and jeer with it
Broadcast me a joyful noise into the times, Lord
Count your blessings, ignore the lowest fear, come one, what more?

It's been a bad day, please don't take my picture
It's been a bad day, please
It's been a bad day, please don't take my picture
It's been a bad day, please
