Havin’ a Bad Day Lyrics

Today I got up on the wrong side of the bed
Checked my head to see if it was still there
Don't know the date or the day of the week
Don't know the time and don't care

Checked the paper for my Horoscope
Sat myself down to watch some TV
Telephone rang so I picked it up
But it wasn't for me

(Verse Tag)
I don't care what other people do
My Horoscope says that it must be true
A Cancer rising and a Pisces too
I can't believe it, it must be true

(Chorus)
I'm havin' a bad day
It's not 'cause of you
I'm havin' a bad day
I don't know what to do
I'm havin' a bad day
So stay out of my way, leave me alone
I'll get on with my bad day
Just remember that I warned you
What can go wrong will go wrong
That's what I always say
I don't expect that things will ever change
'Cause today's my bad day

Today's just a catastrophe
I don't know why this happens to me
One day is fine, next day is hell
I don't like this misery

I don't care what other people do
My Horoscope says that it must be true
A Cancer rising and a Pisces too
I can't believe it, it must be true

(Guitar Solo)
(Chorus)

Today I got up on the wrong side of the bed
Checked my head to see if it was there
Don't know the date or the day of the week
Don't know the time and don't care

What can go wrong will go wrong
That's what I always say
It's true, unless you prove me wrong
Or show me another way
I don't care what other people do
My Horoscope says that it must be true
A Cancer rising and a Pisces too
I can't believe it, it must be true

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
