Lyrics
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
Itโs 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 donโt know if I believe
They tell me that the arc of history
Is bending in the right degree
They tell us, โyou just wait and see.โ
โCause every other day Gilead invokes a new injunction
Even Mothersโ day on our sisters and our friends and on our lovers
So how โbout women taking back the means of reproduction?
What do you say?
On a bad day I wake to find that โwokeโ is an invective
On a bad day - to dinosaurs contesting old elections
When picket fences, power and profits all had white complexions
Ah โthe good old days!โ
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 libertyโs a great olโ gal but you donโt know her
On a bad day
Itโs a sad day when conspiracy becomes a kind of street cred
Itโs 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 donโt know if I believe
They tell me that the arc of history
Is bending in the right degree
But weโre not gonna wait and see
On any given day youโre 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...
