Bad Day

Where is the mom when we need it the most?
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue sky's faded to gray
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces every time
And I don't need no carryin' on

'Cause you had a bad day, 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 a ride
You had a bad day, the camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day, you had a bad day

We don't need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day, 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 a ride
You had a bad day, the camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day, ooh, all day

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing, it turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know that
You could well be all that strong
Well, I'm not wrong, yeah, yeah

So where was the passion when we need it the most?
Oh, you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

'Cause you had a bad day, 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 a ride
You had a bad day, this really what you like?
And how does it feel? For one more time
You had a bad day, you had a bad day

Ooh, all day
You had a bad day
Ooh, you had a bad day
You had a bad day
