On a Bad Day Songtext
von The Lowest of the Low

On a bad day all I see are wars and escalation
On a bad day all I feel is sadness and frustration
And when the end of history becomes a pop sensation
It′s a bad day

On a bad day folks have fewer rights than corporations
On a bad day workers have to fight for liberation
For decent wages, toilet breaks and even paid vacations
On a bad day

Now I don't know if I believe
They tell me that the arc of history
Is bending in the right degree
They tell us, "you just wait and see."

′Cause every other day Gilead invokes a new injunction
Even Mothers' day on our sisters and our friends and on our lovers
So how 'bout women taking back the means of reproduction?
What do you say?


On a bad day I wake to find that "woke" is an invective
On a bad day - to dinosaurs contesting old elections
When picket fences, power and profits all had white complexions
Ah "the good old days!"

On a bad day we go low and they go even lower
On a bad day justice is a grower not a shower
And lady liberty′s a great ol′ gal but you don't know her
On a bad day

It′s a sad day when conspiracy becomes a kind of street cred
It's a sad day, the anthem of the fearful and the brain-dead
Those whistles only dogs can hear, and certain fascist dickheads
On a bad day

Now I don′t know if I believe
They tell me that the arc of history
Is bending in the right degree
But we're not gonna wait and see

On any given day you′re the only thing that I have faith in
On a good day we wake up with a sweet anticipation
And we vow to burn this old house down and build a new foundation
Maybe some day, maybe some day
Ah, maybe one day
