R.e.m. - Bad day (Live) lyrics

A public service announcement followed me home The other day, I paid it never mind, go away sh**s so thick you can 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 blessings 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 a**, 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 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 Here's the church, here's the steeple Please stay tuned, we cut to sequel Ashes, ashes, we all fall down Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times, Lord Count your blessings Ignore the lower fear Oh, this means war It's been a bad day, please don't take a picture It's been a bad day, please It's been a bad day, please don't take a picture It's been a bad day, please I saw that I'd to keep returning 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, please don't take a picture It's been a bad day, please It's been a bad day, please don't take a picture It's been a bad day, please It's been a bad day, please don't take a picture It's been a bad day, please It's been a bad day, please don't take a picture It's been a bad day, please
