Song lyrics
Where is the moment we needed the most ?
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
You tell me your blue skies fade to grey
You tell me your passion's gone away and I don't need no carryin' on
You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime and I don't need no carryin' on

Because you had a bad day, you're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know, you tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day, the camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day, you had a bad day

Well, you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day, you're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know, you tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day, the camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day, oh... Holiday...

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong and I'm not wrong, ahhh...

So where is the passion when you need it the most ?
Oh, you and I, you kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

'Cause you had a bad day, you're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know, you tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day, you've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day, you had a bad day

(Oh, yeah, yeaaah, yeah) Had a bad day
(Oh, had a bad day) Had a bad day
(Oh, yeah, yeah, yeeeeah) Had a bad day
(Oh, had a bad day) Had a bad day, had a bad day...

Ever since I heard this song ii has been my 'Feel Better' song. No matter what has got me down I can listen to "Bad Day" and feel better.

The song sounds great, is well played, has a great message and Daniel Powter sings it beautifully!

Utter musical tripe that was overplayed 3 years ago, and yet still manages to still be played constantly today. The singer's voice is whiny, the lyrics are annoyingly repetitive, and to all those sillies talking about the music video - that has exactly what to do, with the price of tea in China?(As in - it's a video. what does it have to actually do with the song? =P)

If you actually liked this 'song' and keep requesting it on your radio station or playing it on your ipod because you 'had a bad day' instead of finding ways to turn it into a good one - you need to do the world a favor and take some fifty-caliber aspirin. =P

I think we should be thanking AI they are the ones who made this song so popular.

Is this song moving back up the chart just because AI is in the midst of another season? I love this song but I hate AI.
