Bad Days

Bad Days
by Dan Pokorni

Deals are forming in the secret backroom
Change society for all the better
Fill our heads with finely crafted lies
Yes they will

Politicians talking all their nonsense
Taking bribes and filling up their pockets
Wait in line to get your unemployment
Yes you will

Bad days are here for me and you
Bad days are here to stay
Bad days are here oh me, oh my
Bad days will make you (us) cry

Bombs are blowing in the downtown subway
Half the world says we all deserve it
Lady pop star gets another drug bust
Yes she did

Shove your money in that big old mattress
Throw your boss right out the penthouse window
Fill that suitcase full of guns and ammo
Yes you will

The world’s ending in just 3.5 years
Got to build that interstellar rocket
Going crazy for the thousandth time
Yes you will
