Karaoké Bad Day R.E.M.

A public service announcement followed me home the other day

I paid it never mind

Go away

Shit so thick you could stir it with a stick-free Teflon whitewashed presidency

We're sick of bein' jerked around

Wear that on your sleeve

Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times Lord

Count your blessings

We're sick of bein' jerked around

We all fall down

Have you ever seen the televised

Saint 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 lockdown

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 fears

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 had to keep her

Broadcast me a joyful noise unto the times Lord

Count your blessings

We're sick of bein' 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
