Lyrics: Well I took a little something To make my worries go away I laid down with a movie And I started to feel OK But I heard the doorbell ringing And I opened up to see My worries they were waiting there for me
Now Death as you'd expect He was all dressed up in black Misfortune in her stockings And a curve upon her back And the Chorus Of The Lonely In their gospel robes of course They were singing 'bout my imminent divorce
It's a beautiful day No it's a horrible day Maybe I will grin but I won't bear It's a beautiful day No it's a horrible day And for the first time in my life I just don't care
So let me get my coat And let me get my stash I'll trade my VCR For a pocketful of cash I'll take off with my worries And I'll even let Death drive We're sure to get there Dead or alive
It's a beautiful day No it's a horrible day You can see here by my grin I don't give a fuck It's a beautiful day No it's a horrible day And for the first time in my life I don't need the luck
Quotes: "Perhaps one of my favourite tracks is Horrible Day. It's very traditional sounding, with country and rock elements. It might be sad but there is some optimism there. It's a beautiful day, it's a horrible day. I like that!" - Frank Talking to Virgin Megastores Online, July 2003
