LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: BAD DAY/R.E.M.

A public service announcement followed me home the other day
I paid it nevermind
Go away
Shits 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 blesings
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 lock down

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

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
Heres the church, heres the steeple
Please stay tuned-we cut to sequel
Ashes to ashes, we all fall down

Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, lord
Count your blessings
Ignore the lower fear
Ugh, this means war

It's been a bad day
Please don't take a picture
It's been a bad day
Please

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
