About Bad Day
This song is saying that even if you have a bad day once in a while, things will get better. In Europe, it was released in 2005 and became a hit when Coca-Cola used it as the theme song for an advertising campaign on the continent. It topped the Italian and German charts and was #2 in England for 3 weeks. In America, Powter’s album was released in 2006, and this song became a hit when the TV show American Idol started using it as a theme for the “goodbye video” for the departing contestants who were voted off the show on the fifth season. .
Bad Day Lyrics
[00:08.31] Where is the moment we needed the most?
[00:14.84] You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
[00:21.62] They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
[00:25.21] They tell me your passion's gone away
[00:28.76] And I don't need no carryin' on
[00:35.56] You stand in the line just to hit a new low
[00:42.35] You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
[00:49.01] And tell me your life's been way offline
[00:52.57] You're falling to pieces every time
[00:56.02] And I don't need no carryin' on
[01:01.09] 'Cause you had a bad day, you're taking one down
[01:04.53] You sing a sad song just to turn it around
[01:08.03] You say you don't know, you tell me, "Don't lie"
[01:11.57] You work at a smile, and you go for a ride
[01:14.99] You had a bad day, the camera don't lie
[01:18.50] You're coming back down, and you really don't mind
[01:21.91] You had a bad day
[01:25.42] You had a bad day
[01:28.44]
[01:40.82] Well, you need a blue sky holiday
[01:44.40] The point is they laugh at what you say
[01:47.89] And I don't need no carryin' on
[01:52.96] You had a bad day, you're taking one down
[01:56.26] You sing a sad song just to turn it around
[01:59.64] You say you don't know, you tell me, "Don't lie"
[02:02.91] You work at a smile, and you go for a ride
[02:06.67] You had a bad day, the camera don't lie
[02:10.01] You're coming back down, and you really don't mind
[02:13.72] You had a bad day
[02:17.40]
[02:21.44] Sometimes the system goes on the blink
[02:24.24] And the whole thing turns out wrong
[02:28.21] You might not make it back, and you know
[02:31.35] That you could be well, oh, that strong
[02:34.49] And I'm not wrong, yeah
[02:42.03] So where is the passion when you need it the most?
[02:46.86] Oh, you and I
[02:49.25] You kick up the leaves, and the magic is lost
[02:54.19] 'Cause you had a bad day, you're taking one down
[02:57.72] You sing a sad song just to turn it around
[03:01.36] You say you don't know, you tell me, "Don't lie"
[03:04.67] You work at a smile, and you go for a ride
[03:07.95] You had a bad day, you've seen what you like
[03:11.56] And how does it feel for one more time?
[03:14.90] You had a bad day
[03:18.37] You had a bad day
[03:22.13] Ah, had a bad day
[03:27.90] Ah, had a bad day
[03:34.67] Ah, had a bad day
[03:41.25] Ah...

[00:28.76] And I don't need no carryin' on
